how to work at a bank in bitlife

To work at a bank in BitLife, you basically need to build a smart, finance- focused character and then grab an entry-level bank job (like Bank Teller or Jr. Banker) and climb from there.

Step 1: Build a smart character

  • Aim for high Smarts from childhood by reading books and visiting the library every year.
  • Avoid trouble: getting a criminal record can block bank jobs later.
  • Keep Health and Happiness decent so school performance stays stable.

Step 2: Do well in school

  • Always study harder each year in primary and secondary school.
  • Join activities that boost your performance (clubs, etc.) when possible to keep grades high.
  • Try to graduate high school with strong grades so university options open up.

Step 3: Choose the right university major

When you graduate high school:

  • Go to university and pick a money/number-related major such as:
    • Finance
    • Economics
    • Accounting
    • (Sometimes Business or similar can also work)
  • Keep studying harder in university so you actually graduate; dropping out will make banking roles much rarer.

Step 4: Get into the banking sector

Once you finish university:

  1. Go to the Jobs tab.
  2. Look for roles like:
    • Bank Teller
    • Jr. Banker
    • Jr. Financial Advisor / Financial Advisor (still part of the bank career path).
  1. If you don’t see them:
    • Age up a year and check again.
    • Close and reopen the job list (it refreshes each year).

If you have the right degree and clean record, you usually get an interview quickly.

Step 5: Acing the interview

Bank interviews often give personality-type questions:

  • Choose answers that show:
    • Strong work ethic.
    • Willingness to learn.
    • Professionalism and reliability.
  • Avoid silly or selfish answers (e.g., only caring about cute coworkers or slacking off).

Passing the interview lands you the job, and you’ll officially “work at a bank.”

Step 6: Climb the bank ladder

After getting in (say as Bank Teller or Jr. Banker):

  • Work harder every year using the job menu.
  • Keep your relationship with your boss positive; ask for promotions occasionally.
  • Over time you can move up through:
    • Jr. Banker → Banker → Sr. Banker.

Higher roles pay more and feel like you’ve fully “made it” as a banker in BitLife.

Mini example playthrough

  • Create a character with decent starting Smarts.
  • Read books as a kid, study every year.
  • Go to university, major in Finance.
  • Graduate, open Jobs, grab “Bank Teller” or “Jr. Banker.”
  • Work harder, keep your boss happy, and request promotions until you reach Banker/Sr. Banker.
