Starting Credit History

Hi guys,

Please advise on first steps of “building” credit history. I got my permanent residency card, got SS number. I have savings in the bank, so what are the hints of quick credit history building?

I was thinking to get a credit card from a bank, then show my savings in the bank and get loans. Pay back loans and get new ones (so in that way increase my credit points). Is this good strategy? Please advise.
Thanks a lot beforehand.
