What should a banker resume include?
Bank recruiters in India look for clear evidence of business handled: branch or portfolio size, loans sanctioned, deposits mobilised and asset quality. They also check JAIIB and CAIIB status, knowledge of KYC and RBI norms, and the kind of customers you served. Numbers such as NPA ratios and portfolio growth carry more weight than a list of duties.
Skills recruiters look for:
- Credit appraisal
- KYC and AML compliance
- CASA and liability relationship management
- Working capital assessment and CMA data
- NPA management and recovery
From our sample resumes:
- Rohit’s loan processing bullet mentions CIBIL checks and property papers alongside the count and value, showing he understands credit basics despite being new to banking.
- Sneha’s NPA line compares her book with the regional average, which is how credit heads judge whether an underwriter is cautious or simply lucky.
