Answer 3

Resumes in US should be two pages or less, highlight your experience for the job you are seeking.

For a bank: show evidence of past jobs/community involvements where you were trustworthy, organized, efficient - highlight qualities that make for a good bank employee.
Get familiar with the qualities that they are looking for from sites such as: http://www.bankjobs.com/
