LEARN WHAT IT TAKES TO GET
INTO THE FINANCIAL SECTOR
Although there are lots of graduate
training programmes available, it's a
myth that you have to have a degree
to work in the sector...
If you have GCSEs
Retail banking may be the best bet for
you if you're starting work after your
GCSEs, but without going on to study
for A-Levels or a degree. It's also the
most customer service-based sector
of banking. Think bank clerk in a high
street bank branch, which will also
give you the chance to work your way
up the ladder and earn diplomas or
certificates in insurance.
Just like other businesses, high street
banks have departments with other roles
to fill, such as HR, IT and sales as well.
If you have A-Levels
Bank entry schemes are targeted at people
who want to work for a bank but don't have
a degree-level qualification. Admittedly,
these programmes are less frequent than
those aimed at graduates but they do
mean there's a way in for you, no matter
what your qualifications. Again, you'll get
the chance to study for diplomas or
certificates of insurance - vital for
progressing to a managerial position. If
you want to be an accountant, leaving
school with A-levels to train with a local or
regional accountancy firm is one option.
If you have a degree
Most large UK banks run graduate
programmes. You're more likely to be
accepted if you've studied a relevant
subject like economics, finance, maths or
business, and have a minimum of a 2:1.
Competition is fierce, so it's key to
have the right skills and experience
to help you stand out from the rest.
Securing a paid summer internship
at a bank in your penultimate year
of study can be a good head start to
getting onto a banking graduate
scheme. As you'd expect, these
internships can be hard work and long
hours - some would say excellent
preparation for a career in banking.
Sarah says...
Research makes it clear that companies
❛with
more diverse workforces perform better,
so it's good news the finance sector as a whole
is now making it easier for all sorts of people
to join - and that includes women.
