Yes! You could apply to be a bank teller because that position doesn't require a financial degree. Just be sure to highlight things like mathematical ability and any customer service experience you might have on your resume.

If I study mechanical engineering and I have been working with an engineering firm and also do a teaching job, how can I write a resume that will reflect good skills for a banking job?

Focus on highlighting experience that shows your attention to detail and mathematical abilities, which you surely have as an engineer! If you took any kinds of economics or accounting courses, be sure to mention those as well. Also, highlight the social abilities you have from your teaching job, such as communication.
