Thursday, July 24th, 2008I am an Industrial engineer and want to make a move to Corporate Finance, one of the questions I get most often is why do I want to make such a career change and how I see myself fit into this role ? or justify how you can do well in Corporate Finance role despite your non finance background?
I am currently enrolled in a full time MBA program and planning to take finance courses but I want to know how I can really sell myself on this idea ?
What is the difference between a career in Finance and a career in Accounting?
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008I am thinking about going back to school to get a BS in Business Administration.
I would like to know what the difference is in careers in Finance and Accounting. Has anyone had a career in either field? What I want to know is:
What did you think of your career?
What did you do all day in Finance or Accounting?
Did you find it exciting or really boring?
For a career as a Financial Planner or Financial Advisor, do you work off of commision only?

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008I’m only a freshmen in college right now and I’m double majoring in finance and accounting. I was wondering how I can better prepare myself for a career in that field. Should I read some books or try to get hands on experienced. I’m looking to be a CPA or an Investment/Financial Analyst so how do I prepare for that. Any information you guys can give will help. Thanks a lot in advance.
What should I know about becoming a bank teller?
Saturday, June 21st, 2008I have decided that I would like to work as a bank teller while I am finishing college. What can you tell me about how to get this job? The perks and downfalls of the job and the best banks to work for. However none of that is important if I don’t actually get to work at a bank so basically how do you recommend that I get hired at a bank?
How is the group interview at Bank Of America for a teller position?
Saturday, June 21st, 2008Interview Question Why do you want to work in the banking industry?
Saturday, May 24th, 2008Hey all,
I have a few interviews coming up for some entry level internships with a few banks (both commercial and investment in divisions such as Operations and Compliance). I am a senior in college.
I was wondering what is a good answer that will score points with the interviewer to the “Why do you want to be in the banking industry?” question.
My answer to this question would be that I like the corporate work environment, set work schedule, offers challenging work, and that the banking industry is something I want to learn more about as a career. Is this a good enough answer and does it sound genuine? Let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance!
