Why do some fresh graduates go to the bank?

Not some fresh graduates will go to the bank, but many fresh graduates will go to the bank. The reason for this is the following：

1. The four major state-owned banks (workers, peasants and China Construction) only recruit fresh graduates.

The four major state-owned banks only recruit campus, fresh graduates and not the society! If you miss the fresh graduates, you will have to go to a higher degree. If you become a fresh graduate again, you will have the opportunity to participate in the school recruitment again. Therefore, the school recruitment of fresh graduates is the only way to enter the four major banks, so many fresh graduates will go to the bank.

2. Banks accept talents from all financial and IT professions.

Basically, all professional financial and IT banks will accept it.

The most relevant industries for financial graduates are banking, brokerage, insurance and investment banking. However, the brokerage industry is too cyclical, the insurance industry is mixed with a large number of low-quality salesmen, and investment banks are too sophisticated. As a basic industry of people's livelihood, banks have many institutions, perfect systems and certain thresholds, but they are not too high-end, with stable work and upper-middle salary and welfare in society.

If IT graduates don't want to be code farmers and want to have a job with good salary, welfare and labor intensity, banks are also one of their best choices. The key is that banks can basically accept IT majors. Although banks don't pay attention to the research and development of technological innovation like technology and finance companies, they still need to transform, and it is always right to reserve IT professionals.

3. The elders think that the bank is a golden rice bowl.

I have to say that many parents of the older generation still think that banks are a glamorous "golden rice bowl". Although young people who work in banks now are also bitter and tired, and their wages are not necessarily high, many parents just feel that banks are stable and that as long as they persist in their work, they will certainly become leaders and then be worry-free all their lives. Many freshmen can't beat their parents' stubbornness and can only apply for a bank to satisfy their parents.

To sum up, as a super-large financial enterprise with perfect system and strict management system, the bank can provide a decent and rigorous job without much professional knowledge and technology. Working in a bank can help you learn a set of management systems and get in touch with various customers (personal resources), which is a good foundation for you to jump to other industries or start your own business in the future.
