While job searching may seem daunting, the NBA conveniently advertises job openings at banks and other financial institutions across the state.

  • For both bankers and students, these resources put financial institution employees and potential college-aged future employees in contact, helping foster mutually beneficial professional relationships and employment.

Why Explore a Career in Banking?

Banks and Bankers Help Their Communities Every Day:
Nebraska bank employees do more than “loan money” – on a deeper level, the people who make up this industry do much more:

Dreams come true inside Nebraska banks. Finalizing a teenager’s car loan documents is about more than the paperwork, it’s the sense of maturity and confidence they feel when their parents hand them the keys. Bankers provide expert advice, tools, and the means for home loans that turn houses into places a family can prosper. Nebraska bankers’ customers are truly important to them!
Nebraska banks and their employees are also extremely generous; they are constantly holding fundraisers, gifting donations, promoting financial literacy, and offering financial support for their community’s projects, buildings, organizations, and events. Nebraska bankers go to work every day to ensure financial responsibility for their customers, and financially secure communities is the result.

It’s More Than Just “Banking” – It’s Great Experience:
Employment at Nebraska’s banks and financial institutions provide:

• A wide range of opportunities;
• Outlets to build your professional confidence through developing new skills;
• On-the-job training and reward achievements in higher education;
• A challenging yet rewarding way to help your peers manage their finances; and
• Opportunities for leadership and community service.

Nebraska bank employment also offers a competitive salary, fringe benefits, opportunities for advancement, and excellent working conditions in professional facilities.

Every Employee can Find Their Niche Working at a Bank:
Many degrees and skill sets are needed and can be utilized to make a bank function efficiently. Common employment areas include:

• Bank administration/accounting/security (internal operations);
• Consumer banking (individual customers);
• Commercial banking (businesses, schools, churches, and other organizations as customers);
• Compliance (regulation);
• Human resources administration (hiring, placement, salaries, and training);
• Operations/technology/information systems (IT);
• Public relations/marketing (bank promotion); and
• Trust and investment banking (money or property management).

I encourage you to speak with your local banker about any financial needs you may have. I also encourage you, if you are wondering what you could do to help your community every day, to consider a career in Nebraska’s exceptional banking industry.
