It's pretty straightforward, you'll chat with the branch manager and assistant manager. They'll want to know your schedule and if you've handled cash before. They need to be sure you can be trusted with a lot of cash and that you'll balance everything out at the end of your shift, so no money is unaccounted for.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • What's your experience with handling cash?
  • Have you reconciled a cash drawer by yourself at a past job?

Behavioral Technical Case

I applied for a Customer Service Representative role at one location and received a call from the manager about 30 minutes later. She asked me to come in for an interview the next afternoon. During the interview, we discussed the job, cash handling, sales experience, and my career expectations and goals. The manager seemed very interested and mentioned she would forward my information to HR to proceed with the next steps. After about a month of waiting with no updates, I applied at a different location. About a week later, I got a call back, interviewed a few days after that, and received a job offer the following week.

The interviewer was nice but thorough. They asked me what I would do if a customer was angry because of a bank error and how I would cross-sell bank products. Overall, it was a good interview, but I turned down the position because the salary wasn't enough.
