I don't think a half hour is enough time to make a really good resume. You need an education section, work experience with descriptions of what your jobs entail...Better to wait then to hand in something you haven't proofed or had someone else look over. Good luck!

you could totally do one by 4. Does it have to be right now? You coudln't do it tomorrow?

since you are in a hurry, use a template- MS word should hae them.
Just list your jobs
postion, company, city, sate, years
and then under each it make bullett points with short phrases with action words-

created schedue
managed staff
was responsible for. . .

etc, things like that.
and since it is a bank, mention dealing wth $.

I never worked in a bank But I worked in Kmart and I worked in the cash office there I counted 200,000.00 a day sometimes (of course when the company was doing good)

Is it a teller job? I think most banks hire those as entry level if you have any sort of $ experience. I know people who were tellers in HS, so I don't think you need too much experience.
If you are good with $, you may want to consider the teller route & trying other banks if this doesn't work out. I think it is a good way to get your foot in the door in banking.

Yes it was a full time teller job. I kinda wanted to work in a bank for a while dont know why. Maybe the hours and the days off. I applied at Washington Mutual and they said they hired someone who had more experience so we shall see.
