Five or more years of experience in auditing or examining financial institutions is required to become a bank examiner.
Successful bank examiners are committed to lifelong learning. Even after you have reached the position of bank examiner, it will be important to stay on top of new information technology developments (including those in cybersecurity), laws and regulations, and changes in the field. Also, you should be able to work well with others since you will be working with teams of examiners as well as interacting with professionals at the financial institutions being examined. Be prepared to travel as part of your job; often you will be sent from one financial institution to another to perform examinations. Finally, if you enjoy detailed and analytical work with numbers, this may be the field for you.
