SWITCHING FROM RETAIL BRANCH BANKING TO KYC AML.
I'm working in a reputed private sector bank for 2.4 years. Previously I had worked on a different private bank for 5years in retail branch banking. In this 7.4 years I have gathered both operational and sales experience. My current cycle is about 6.75 LPA. Now I want to change from retail to KYC AML. I found it to be more authentic and where I can use my knowledge. All I have learned and gathered knowledge about banking, kyc, aml, customer handling, operations. But now all it comes down to is sales ,sales and sales. I don't know what I am doing.I don't want to do it any more. Frustrated about the daily sales . KYC AML is something I'm trying to get into.I'm taking preparations on it also. Studying Kyc process ,CIP, CDD,EDD, Transaction monitoring, screening, sanctions,OFAC, FATF, BASELnorms etc. But I don't know how to go about it in the job market. What type of questions will be asked? Will they even look into my CV? Interview rounds? Expected salary Any one out there plz help.
