Do banks need IELTS scores for recruitment?

There is no single score requirement for IELTS in bank campus recruitment. International students who apply for banks to return to China do not need to provide IELTS or TOEFL scores, just provide academic credentials, and do not need IELTS or TOEFL scores.

Banks don't have high requirements for English, but they are more professional and require higher proficiency in financial English. If it is international business, it requires a higher level of English, and generally requires passing CET-6.

Regarding English requirements, it is very necessary to get into CET-4 and CET-6. CET-4 and CET-6 are still very important stepping stones for bank recruitment, especially if your favorite bank position requires CET-4 and CET-6. And under the same conditions, the pass rate of students with CET-4 and CET-6 certificates is higher than that of students without CET-4 and CET-6 certificates. Generally speaking, CET-4 is required, some banks require CET-6, and English majors generally have to pass CET-8. In addition, some banks' foreign-related business positions will also require TOEFL and IELTS. There will also be a few banks that do not particularly require English proficiency. Of course, there will be banks that have no requirements for CET-4 and CET-6, and local banks have relatively loose requirements for CET-4 and CET-6.
