Banking & Taxation

To be a bank branch manager, you need a Bachelor's degree in accounting, business administration, or finance. You also need at least five years of experience in financial services including previous experience as a loan officer, financial analyst, or assistant branch manager. CPA or CFA certifications are optional, but they may improve your career opportunities. You should also cultivate your skills in customer service, communication, accounting, decision-making, and time management. You'll want to be involved in community affairs and ensure you have an understanding of federal and state regulations regarding financial reporting.

If I had to go with this, I would say that completing your degree first is a better option why because once you start doing job studies hardly matters to you because you have already started working and people doing MBA want to get a good placement which you already have so, what will be the need for you to get back to studies? Once, you get a job, you gain experience which matters if a company wants to hire you then there's no point of returning back just to get a degree.
Hence, for me, it's important to complete degree first then move to corporate sector because it filters your interest and gets you better opportunities to work. The main motive of every person is to earn, a person already earning would not be so keen to again pursue a course until and unless he is a studious person. But, if your degree completes, you might get chances abroad in an initial stage based on your grades.

Hi,
It all depends on the kind of career goals you have and where do you finally want to land up. The major difference between these two are: In the Bank PO exam, you will get into the banking sector and in SSC, you will get into central government services.
Further, both exams have different selection procedure and parameter for recruiting into various services. In SSC-CGL, the focus is mainly on English and aptitude in the mains stage while prelims the needle points towards GK, reasoning, aptitude & English. In bank PO examination, the prelims paper focuses on reasoning, quantitative aptitude and English, while mains examination stresses on 5 topics English, quantitative aptitude and reasoning ability, computer knowledge, and general awareness of banking.
The GK of SSC-CGL paper is more static portion oriented, where an understanding of history, geography, polity, economy plus current affairs is needed.
Both the examination is a three stage process, but unlike Bank PO examination, SSC-CGL does not have interview stage.
All the best for your future endeavors.
