“I was interested in First Business as a potential employer because it is a local bank where I felt I would be valued as an individual employee and because I felt a sense of job security. With the economy in a downturn, it is nice to know that I work for a bank in strong financial standing, and in a role which I know is valued and needed. Every day that I come to work, I am impressed with the caliber and friendliness of my fellow employees and am challenged in my daily role. I am very happy to have started my career at First Business and would recommend others to do the same.”

“I was with First Business for four years when my wife's military obligation took us to Japan for two years. When our time overseas was up I had the opportunity to explore other options as we moved back home to Wisconsin. Through this process, I realized that I wanted to return to First Business because of how well I was treated, all the opportunities I received, and all the great people that I was able to work with. Coming back was definitely the right decision.”

“Working at First Business is like working with family. I would call First Business ‘a family away from home.’ The people that I work with are not just coworkers, but members of an extended family. I have worked here for 15 years and have always been treated with respect and feel valued every day.”

“While I was still in college, I began at First Business as an intern in the Northeast bank. I worked with a great group, and I also gained knowledge to jumpstart my career in the industry. As my graduation date approached, a full-time position opened up in Madison. I was already looking to move from the Fox Valley to Madison, and since my internship was so pleasant it was a perfect opportunity (Not to mention it saved me a lot of job-hunting). I quickly learned that I made a great decision in sticking with First Business and have since realized how lucky I am to have found this company so early in my professional career.”

“I enjoy working for First Business because I have the opportunity to work with companies across many different industries. In my role, I am able to travel to client locations and meet the people that operate each company that we work with. My experience at First Business has been interesting and exciting from the day I started. But most of all, I've enjoyed working with and getting to know all the friendly people at First Business.”

“Being a returning employee, I am extremely glad that I came back to work at First Business. It felt like I was ‘home’ again. I work with, and for, great people and enjoy coming to work every day. I would highly recommend First Business to anyone who is looking for a place to build a career and future.”

Brian

Financial Accountant
Employee since January 2006

“I started working at First Business immediately after I graduated college. As an entry-level accountant, my range of responsibilities would have been limited had I decided to enter public accounting. I chose First Business because of the challenging work environment they were able to offer me as young professional. In addition, First Business has an excellent educational assistance program that has allowed me to go back to school to pursue my MBA, as well as study and sit for the CPA certification exams. I look forward to enhancing my career as I continue to grow with First Business.”
