Office of the Comptroller of the Currency

Read a random definition: National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service

A quick definition of Office of the Comptroller of the Currency:

Office of the Comptroller of the Currency: This is a part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury that makes sure banks follow the rules. They check on banks, decide if new banks can open, and make sure banks don't do anything wrong. They are called the OCC for short.

A more thorough explanation:

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is a part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Its main job is to regulate around 2,600 national banks. It does this by:

  • Examining the banks
  • Approving or denying applications for bank charters, branches, or mergers
  • Closing banks that don't follow rules and regulations
  • Regulating banking practices

The OCC makes sure that banks follow the rules and regulations set by the government. This helps to protect people's money and keep the banking system stable.

For example, if a bank wants to open a new branch, it needs to get approval from the OCC first. The OCC will look at the bank's financial health and make sure it has enough money to open the new branch. If the OCC approves the application, the bank can open the new branch. If the OCC denies the application, the bank can't open the new branch.

i found a legal internship posting for 1L summer and above at a fairly popular company. should i wait until the semester starts to apply since i won't have any activities/proof that i would be completing my 1L year by next summer yet, or should i apply now with just the school name on my resume so the position doesn't fill up?
damn we already applying for 1L jobs
16:51
this company is notorious for opening their applications early lol
16:51
i know for a fact they dont start interviewing until sept/oct but it is a very popular company so im not sure timeline wise if i should wait to have something of legal related substance or just apply now to be ahead
thats a good question but i dont know the answer

@c0bra1: I don't know how it works either but I'd assume the worst they can do is tell you you don't have anything yet and if you apply again it'll make it seem like you're actually really interested?

IDK IDK don't take my advice for it lol. That's how I got some of my positions in undergrad but law is a different monster
idk with minicar
i agree
not idk omg
send an email, tell them you're an incoming 1L and looking to apply! even if they say you can't, you're on their radar if you re-apply after 1L
maybe if they ask for proof, show your acceptance letter and deposit confirmations or something? or you could probably ask admissions for some sort of proof of enrollment
holy fuck a recent nyu acceptance didn't hear back for almost half a year

i should see if i can get the recruiter name. this is a big company, not a firm, so i doubt they'll care too much, they might just ATS for graduation year. thanks yall
