I get paid $18.50 an hour doing hospital security here in Anchorage--also work around my school schedule. Its worth taking a look at something like that in the area---Dave

The commission for bankers is based on A) How many new accounts and services (i.e. debit/credit cards, online) B) Your pack volume, (With new accounts, were required to sell 3 additional products to the customers) Our volume has to be ATLEAST 45%. C) Profit proxy D) Loan volume E) Retention (whether our customers close their accounts in a few months).. F) Partner referrals (to our home mortgage, investments, and business specialists)

It sounds complicated at first, but if you can meet all of the requirements, your comp will be nicee. Plus I live in a growing area, so its not that hard to meet the loan volume goals, since we do all of our equitys from our branch. My comp as a teller when i started was $600.. for like 150 sales. And that pretty much was just doing my job.

Didnt you say your from like San Ramon?? We need people at my branch right now, probably another banker since one just got fired. But thats in Brentwood. My boss commutes from San Ramon tho.

actually im located in san lorenzo, east bay. right now i commute to santa clara which takes me like 30-45 min to drive.

yea for me to get a new job i have to be at least making 2500-3000 a month to stay at where i'm at right now.

thanks for the info tho. i'm pretty good at getting people to buy things from me so getting loans, referrals, and other things sold to customers shouldn't be too hard.

Have you ever thought about joining the military? I hear that thier pay and benefits package is quite good. Oh, btw, you get to protect all of us while your working...sorta cool.

I did two years of college before I went into the USAF, did four year there, got out, got my first degree for free, and I now make an insane amout of mony as s Defense Contractor. And I must say, I feel that I do good work that benefits all of us.

Hey, somebody has to keep the bad guys at bay. And being a doorgunner on a helo is a lot more fun than tossing french fries......

i wanted to call bs on that, but i looked it up and all you need for licensing in illinois is a hs diploma or GED. here in colorado, you don't have to be certified, but no one will hire you unless you've got a certificate from a school...which is what i'm doing now. think i'll move to illinois now.
Actually, i have a license and i haven't graduated high school yet. All you need is a high school diploma (or GED) or be enrolled in high school. I jus gotta find a job now.

I lived in San Lorenzo til the end of kindergarten haha. Really tho, if you can sell, consider banking. And you have mangerial experience? My boss, who makes bank, was a manager at circuit city. He came to wells as a personal banker, and then assistant manager. Now hes a branch manager, and this was in like 2 years. We have branches all over out there too. And if you were to start with wells as a PB1, you could request more than Im making, since I started as a teller with no experience, my pay started kinda low.

Fun and pays a lot? LOL ,in a mall? Your idea of 'pays a lot' must differ somewhat from mine. Maybe you meant a retailer that pays the most. That would be McDonalds. Ten bucks an hour to start and health insurance. Pizza delivery in a rich neighborhood might net you some good tips. After you get out of college, contractors and programers are the only skys-the-limit kind of jobs. Good luck.
what are you talking about $10 to start? where do you live? i'm in washington with one of the highest paying minimum wage and my girlfriend started at $7.63. did you start in management? anyway i work at circuit city and started at $9.25, i've been there 7 months and i got a raise to $9.60. but im about to go take a test for the N.E.I.E.P. elevator trade. it starts at $19 per hour (legit!)
