The banking industry differs in greater Minnesota and the metro area.
| "Yes, there are differences between Greater Minnesota and the metro area. Especially in rural Minnesota for agricultural lending, which is pretty specific. They've been trained on that or they've been trained through us internally for some of those things. But it's also keeping people—when they do graduate in Greater Minnesota, in those communities—that's also a struggle for a lot of banks." | Metro |
| "There are differences between metro and Greater Minnesota. Greater Minnesota is much more connected in [lost in translation] community colleges and the use of those as feeder programs. The metro area is very different. There's a lot more turnover, for example, in teller positions. Maybe someone will work as a teller for a couple of years. Maybe they'll be promoted from within or not. In Greater Minnesota, tellers are often lifetime positions. They do graduate from college sometimes and become personal bankers or maybe loan officers. So, there's some growth within those banks. But we have about 400 banks in the state, and I'd say at least half of those have only 10 to 15 employees. So, it's a very different scenario." | Metro |
