Day to Day
Every morning, when I first come in, I make sure that everything is prepared for our customers to feel welcome when coming into the branch. I help our customers throughout the day, whether it's to open a new account, plan for their child's future and their own, opening business accounts, planning for emergency funds, etc. It's important to make sure that you meet every customer's banking needs and let them know that they are appreciated. It is also important to work as a team with my peers.
Advice for Getting Started

The most important thing you can do before venturing out into the world of college is to shadow someone in their position that you may be interested in. This will help you as an individual to see if it really is the right fit for you. Also, do your research in your area of interest and think to yourself: how can you make an impact? How can you make a difference?
