The relatively large number of bank failures in 2010 has left some of our graduates unemployed, and budget constraints at banks have also placed graduates in the job market. We can certainly empathize with the young banker who has a family to support and has lost employment through no fault of his/her own.

To assist these bankers who have been adversely affected by economic conditions, the school is offering a new service to its graduates and current students who are unemployed. Positions available in banks will not be posted, but a banker seeking to hire a new officer may make contact with an unemployed graduate listed in the service. The school will not provide academic records to any bank without the concerning student’s written approval, nor is the school able to supply personal recommendations to potential employers.

To be included in the service, an unemployed graduate or student must provide the following information which will be posted on our web page.
  • Name and year of graduation from GSBLSU (name will not be posted on the Web)
  • Contact information—email address
  • Asset size of previous employer
  • Position desired (e.g. commercial lending, operations, funds management)
  • Number of years banking experience in commercial lending, etc.
  • Preferred location (city, state, or region)/
