I was contacted withing an hour of posting my resume and finding the job opening through career builder website. They were looking for a bilingual candidate. The HR recruited asked me questions in english and then unexpectedly told me because the job required a second language that he was going to ask me questions in the particular language. I passed that interview and I was sent to interview with the area manager. One week after the interview I received an email that I didn't get the job.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Bismarck, ND (took 1+ week)

I applied online and received a call shortly after for an interview. I was told this interview would be with the branch manager, Sales and Service manager, and Lead Teller. I arrived there and it was only with the branch and S&S manager, the interview lasted about 20 minutes and they asked questions like why should they hire me, to name a specific time I had to sell something to someone, and how I approached it. It wasn't intimidating, and it was just like talking about prior jobs with them. They interviewed me Friday morning and said they would call by the following friday, and Monday I received a call with a job offer. The longest process was after being hired having to wait on the background check.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 2 weeks)

I was called shortly after submitting my resume online. The first interview was with the branch's assistant manager and the teller supervisor. Typical past history and scenario questions. In hindsight, they seemed as nervous as I was. They recommended their top picks to the branch manger, and those picks ended up being me and another candidate. I interviewed with the manager, who asked more typical, thought-provoking questions. Immediately after the other candidate's interview I was called and told they went with the other candidate.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Los Angeles, CA (took 4+ weeks)

There was a career fair at my university, and I got a phone interview through a recruiter. I didn't even apply; they just called me. The phone interview was about 40 minutes. My interviewer was really chill; it felt really informal. Lots of behavioral questions and "Why do you want to work here?" kind of questions.

After the phone interview, I got called back for the panel interviews at the office. My first panel interview included 1 current LDP and 2 branch managers. More behaviorable questions (pretty much the same as the phone interview). Time to ask questions about the program and being a branch manager. The 2nd panel interview (about an hour and half later) was with 2 district managers. Even more behavioral questions but also about your experience (based on your resume). They were really nice.

A couple weeks later, I got a call from the hiring manager and was told that I made to the "assessment interview". This interview was supposed to be conducted by the Gallup company (because they ask you behavioral questions in a very stoic and unbiased manner to determine your fit into the company). I called Gallup to set up my interview (which was supposed to take approx 45min-1hr) but was told that the request for my interview had been canceled.

Later, I called US Bank to clarify what had happened. Apparently, the program was "on hold" indefinitely and I was told that if I found anything else interesting on their site, then I can let them know. Needless to say, I moved on in my job hunt.

If you had a single mom employee (banker), who brought in tons of business and was absolutely stellar, what would you do if she wanted to leave because she was being offered a better paying job at your competitor's company? You have maxed out your salary budget as well.

I applied weeks before I got a call for an interview, when I did get the call I was asked to come in for an interview. I met with the branch manager and then not even 24 hours later I got a call to schedule an interview with the district manager. I have that this afternoon, hopefully it goes well.
They asked very standard questions. They hated on my current position which was the only downside.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 2 days)

After a phone interview, interviewed with team member and team leader to get a better feel of what the responsibilities and duties of the actual position were, and to take an accounting assessment test. The job still seemed interesting, so was asked to interview with team manager. He was very straightforward and honest about the job description, which is pretty much data entry, and left feeling comfortable about accepting if an offer was extended.

Started with online application, brief phone call with hiring manager, follow up interviews with senior management and finally a call with HR. There was an emphasis on having strong writing skills and accounting background. New focus is on being an active member of the community. Make sure you have specific stories ready to go, such as a time you found & resolved conflict with a manager/customer/etc.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Turlock, CA (took 2 days)

Wasn't pleased with the way the interview process was handled. I made it through the phone interview where i was asked basics question about my employment history, sales experience, and customer service. It was very straightforward. it even seemed as if the questions were being read off a computer screen and answers were being put in the resembled your answer. The one on one interview was suppose to consist of the Manager and Assistant Manager. When I arrived, I was told that the Manager had left work early. I ended up interviewing with two assistant managers who seemed to be surprised by my arrival. They were unprepared to interview me. Unfortunately they interviewed three people for the job and the first two were hired.
