Accepted Offer – Reviewed May 15, 2013 New

Interview Details I submitted my application online and was asked to take a survey for the Teller position. I did a phone interview with a recruiter and scheduled an interview. I did a one-on-one with the Branch Manager and got an offer the next day. I thought the whole process was very easy and the recruiter was very friendly.

Interview Question – No difficult or unexpected question. I know one of my coworkers had to sell something to the Branch Manager and Assistant Manager during his interview.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – There was no negotiating. I had no experience, they started me at $11.36. At the time I was making $8.25, so to me, it was more than acceptable.

Teller at Bank of America

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in New York, NY (US) May 2013 – Reviewed May 14, 2013 New

Interview Details So this is the interview process for a teller at BofA. First, I applied online through BofA.com. Once I applied they give you about 48 hours to complete the assessment test. The assessment test asks you a variety of questions such as, money counting, typing speed, situational questions, characteristic questions of yourself.
     After you pass the assessment test you would be contacted by a recruiter within two days or so through email to set up your first phone interview. The first phone interview will be very easy. She would tell you about the Teller position, salary, and so on. She would then ask you, "tell me about yourself and why did you choose BofA?"
     Then after, she would set up a second phone interview with another recruiter the day after and stated that it would be 30 minutes long. The second interview was more detailed. Again she asked, "tell me about yourself, why did you choose BofA, What do you see yourself doing in 3 years, what was your title from your previous job and responsibilities, tell me about a time you went beyond to help a customer, and lastly role play being a teller and she was the customer." During the role play she asked to view the account of her sick brother who was in the hospital. Now all you need to remember is to acknowledge her sick brother and make sure you go back with fulfilling the transaction or a viable solution to the situation if she is not allowed to see her brother's account. Once you do well on the second interview you will receive another email stating you have an interview with the Branch manager and Assistant manager of your desired location I set it up for Monday instead of that Friday (FYI, banks are normally super busy on Friday. I rather get them while they aren't so busy.)
     When I went to the third and last interview I wasn't that nervous. I kept in mind everything that was done in the second phone interview and luckily they were the same questions. Both the managers were very pleasant. I left with a good feeling and waited about a week to hear back from my recruiter of the second phone interview and extend the opportunity to me.

Also the background check is very thorough make sure your resume matches your background information. Don't lie on it, you will only hurt yourself.

Best Luck!

Interview Question – The role playing part was the only part in which you have to think a bit. Its manageable though.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – I got a fair deal. If you are looking to start up in the finance field this is a good job for you.
