And by more aggressive, she means I should call a certain bank manager directly and ask for a job.

This bank is probably Wachovia.

Errr, does city-data agree?

I'm pretty skeptical of this because that's what I've been doing for a number of times, making these calls, and it doesn't seem to work.

Is this manager someone you guys know? It sort of sounds that way from your post. If so, go for it. If not, you can still go for it. But, I'm guessing 9 chances out of 10, he/she's going to instruct you to apply online and they will get back to you if they have a position that fits your qualifications.

No, I don't know these people and she probably does not either.

And that last line is what they usually say and what I end up doing.

And this is why it seems like a pointless cycle. It seems faster to say, "try applying for these three banks". I don't know why these people give my mom false hope.
