with a bank? I am about to graduate with a BBA in Finance and my overall GPA is under a 3.0, My question is, will it be possible for me to get a non-sales college degree position with a bank or some financial institution? I am really only getting calls back for sales jobs which I do not want but will take it if no other choice.

Thanks for your feedback
i Just find that most non sales jobs want a 3.0 or better gpa, so i am not sure what i can do

Just get yourself a job - any job. In today's horrible economy, simply getting a job is tough enough - you cannot be choosy.

There are millions of people, many with better and more extensive qualifications that yours, looking for work. You cannot afford to reject any offer.

If you feel the job is not suitable, then continue to look, but in the meantime the job pays the bills.

Same here. My GPA is 3.35 and all the job offers I got were in sales industry. No experience/internship. I'm thinking about pursuing CFP license so I can open my own business.

Sales job is not a bad route when the economy is doing well, but right now it is not.

I can't even get a job as an assistant/office clerk.

Consider jobs in other fields. Good luck.
