"Getting a Bachelor's Degree in Business Finance was a great experience. I especially enjoyed my accounting courses because they challenged me to think more critically and furthered my analytical skills. I know these skills will help me to handle work at TSB Bank and advise clients on important financial decisions."
"Most of my education has been on-the-job training with my current company. They value continued education and have a tuition reimbursement program, which I am happy to have taken advantage of. This year I have taken additional courses in calculus, negotiations, and building a sales pipeline. All these courses will help me in this role with TSB Bank because you are customer service focused and need employees who understand banking related concepts and calculations."
