Career Resources
this board is packed with this information - normally top tier UG, some decent placements, then potentially MBA or Masters if you prefer that.
Otherwise a well-rounded profile, i.e. languages are useful (although you only really need English) and a keen interest in the activities of a bank or the wider economy would help.
