Banking executives always calm and calculated in their work, so write your resume in a very relax and not in a hurry.

First you should have to research thoroughly on the bank that you are applying to and rewrite your resume according to the specific bank.

Huge mass of writing in resume sending is obvious and will not appreciate.

Have you heard the line? "Honesty is the best policy" Do not write untruth in your resume about your experience or qualifications. It is a bank you are applying to, they always verify all the information (it's in their nature!).

Write your career objective keeping the bank objectives in mind. Don't skip the job and career objectives in resume as it is very important. Because this will craft a relationship with your interviewer before he even meets you.

As resume is your first impression, make it professional. Professional means, it should be in:

a) Font should be Simple or uniform like Arial or Tahoma.

b) Use one color for font like Black or Gray Color.

c) Should be Aligned and Justified.

d) Write a brief description of your past working experience.

e) Don't criticize your previous organization in your resume.

Keep your interests economics-related to banking fields as far as possible.

If reading, movies and music are your interests, don't feel shy to mention it (stand by it in the interview if you are questioned, they are also fine interests!)

Research the bank, its work atmosphere, culture etc can also be written in your interest.

Write all your information in brief, like email address, address, contact number etc. It will be easy for them to reach you.

Skip the irrelevant or short-period experiences. Too many short term experiences may show your bad experience. That could be negative sight by the eyes of employers.

Volunteering and Internships are also respectful for your career; because it shows that you have the potential to learn something for your better career, so don't forget to mention it.

No need to mention your religious affiliation in your resume. (In big banks they just want to see tour skills not religion).

Revise and make sure that all your details written in the resume can be verified and justified. Your resume should be calculated for an interview by following my guidelines. Isn't that just the first impression you would want to make? Best of Luck!
