You will gain experience serving members virtually using Vibrant's next generation contact center software and complete advanced business transactions. This part of the rotation will build on your experiential foundation through the use of technology and advanced practices. Rotation 3 also takes place at our corporate headquarters, where you'll join our team of personal bankers. During this rotation, you'll learn about our sales process, develop a deep familiarity with Vibrant's products and services, and work cross-functionally with support departments. By the end of this rotation, you will have a comprehensive understanding of our core business.
Potential Post Program Career Tracks

It's more than just a job, of course.

You'll also have plenty of time to bond with the rest of your cohort as you move through the program, whether you're working on special projects, volunteering in the community, playing kickball, or exploring the Quad Cities together at the end of the day.
Vibrant may look like a bank*, but we think like a startup. We're not satisfied doing things the way they've always been done. That attitude is what made us one of the first credit unions in the area to offer ATMs in the 1970s and online banking in the 1990s. Today, it's helping us create a whole new suite of products and services that aren't anything like traditional banking. We move fast, we work hard, and we're always on the lookout for the next big idea.
At the successful conclusion of your appointment, you'll have the opportunity to continue your Vibrant career either in one of the areas where you've worked previously or in any available role that is a solid step forward on your career path.
*Technically, we're a credit union.
