First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at UMB Financial Corporation.
Transaction Specialist
So I had a phone interview first, and the recruiter was actually 20 minutes late, which I thought was a bit weird, but okay, moving on. Then I had an in-person interview scheduled for the following week at the branch. When I got there, nobody seemed to know I was coming. The person who was supposed to interview me was out on vacation, so I had to wait another 45 minutes for her to show up. After all that, I just never heard back from them. Complete radio silence.
- Were you ever in a role that had sales targets?
Transaction Specialist
I applied on Indeed for a UMB Bank Transaction Specialist I position and they called me a few days later to set up a phone interview. A Transaction Specialist is basically a bank teller. The teller's job is to help customers, meet sales quotas, and direct customers to other bank staff for more help or information. My first interview was a conference call that lasted around 30 minutes.
- Can you discuss your responsibilities and objectives for each past role on your resume, as well as your reasons for departure?
- Describe a situation where you set a personal goal and the steps you took to reach it.
- Share an instance where you exceeded expectations in customer service and how your actions made a memorable impact on the customer.
Transaction Specialist
I had a phone chat with a recruiter. Then, there was a phone meeting with four senior leaders. After that, I followed up with the branch manager. The branch manager gave me a call back to get the paperwork for a drug test and fingerprinting. Once I turned that in, the recruiter called to make the job offer.
- What are your career aspirations in banking?
- Can you describe difficulties you've faced in setting and achieving professional goals?
