But what else can you do to improve your chances of getting a job? We asked Elisabet Elfström, HR Manager at Sparbanken Skaraborg, for her best tips for those seeking work in the industry:

"The banking and insurance industry is undergoing major changes, where digitalization is becoming increasingly important. At the same time, personal interaction remains just as important as before, but can now take place both physically and digitally. Sparbanken Skaraborg is investing in local presence and will open two new offices this autumn.

The need for skills is also changing along with societal development. For example, specialists in anti-money laundering or AI/digitalization. These are roles that didn’t exist before but are now in demand. There is also always a need for customer advisors for both private individuals and businesses.

One advantage of working in a bank is that you help enable people’s opportunities, such as financing homes, improving pensions, or developing businesses through various financial solutions. Savings banks also reinvest in the local community, thereby contributing to positive societal development.

Many employees have a background in economics, but other backgrounds are also valuable. Important qualities include teamwork, empathy, a positive attitude, and curiosity. We - and many other banks - welcome unsolicited applications, but we also advertise open positions on our websites and social media."
