Interviewed May 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 4+ weeks)
It is a pretty long process to get hired as a PB at Wells, especially for an external candidate; they are very big on promoting from within, so you are competing with tellers who are already with the company. Initially you go through a phone screening, then a group interview. Following that, you will have another group interview with your district where you will give a sales presentation. If you do well enough during that, you have a 1 on 1 with the manager. I did well enough, and received an offer the day after that.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
I was able to negotiate a slight increase from the initial offer. Keep in mind, this is a sales position so you are in charge of how much you make.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Background Check, a Personality Test, a Skills Test, a Presentation, a Group/Panel Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Phone Interview.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 4 weeks)
I applied online at the end of December, and had a brief phone interview after an online screening process. The recruiter I spoke with on the phone set me up with a group interview, where I did well, and advanced to the second group interview they held for the specific branches that were hiring in my area. I thought that it had gone well, but after a week of not hearing anything, I contacted one of my friends that worked at Wells Fargo to see how long it usually took to hear back. She said it was abnormal to not get a phone call for a one on one interview or offer, or an email to say that I had not be selected. She contacted the regional recruiter who also did not know why I had not been contacted, sent out emails to all the hiring branches inquiring about my application. Two weeks after the second interview I received a call from the recruiter stating that I had not been selected. Not getting the job wasn't nearly as bad as the waiting and knowing something had gone wrong with my paperwork. It's a huge disappointment not to know whether I didn't get the job because I wasn't qualified, or because of some sort of miscommunication on their part.

Interviewed May 2010 in Phoenix, AZ (took 2 weeks)
I applied online for the Wells Fargo Teller position. I recieved a phone call shortly from a lady. The phone call took about 5 minutes, it consisted of standard easy questions like "do you have sales experience?". I then went to a group interview downtown. Be prepared to answer questions about why you left your last job, your sales experience, how you dealt with a tough customer situation, how you met your sales goals in a recent position/situation (if you had them). As long as you show up on time & are presentable (dressed nicely, smile, ect.) are able to answer questions confidently you should do well. I was forwarded to a branch close to me and I have an interview (i'm assuming one-on-one) tomorrow!

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Tempe, AZ (took a day)
Initial interview with agency recruiter. Then forwarded my resume to the company directly. They set up an interview with 2 managers at the same time. They asked the worst questions that nobody wants to have answer (ex: Tell me about a time when you had to persuade a person or a group of subordinates/peers that your solution to a situation was the best solution).
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Not a lot of negotiation. They offered me a job at a lower level than I was qualified for, but Underwriting jobs are few and far between and beggars can't be choosers. Was able to negotiate a slightly higher hourly rate than was offered, but there are no benefits to speak of since I am working through a staffing agency. There is the prospect of being hired permanently with the company in the future.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Staffing Agency and the interview consisted of a Background Check, a Skills Test, a Group/Panel Interview and a Phone Interview.

Interviewed Dec 2008 in Phoenix, AZ (took 2 weeks)
I used to do the interviews as a assistant manager. They'll sit you in a booth and let you sweat it out for about 10-15 minutes. Then the manager will have someone come in and ask some basic and general questions to feel you out. Then the Manager will come in and ask similiar questions. They are looking for someone who is hungry, motiviated and nieve. Someone they can mold, the less expereince the better.
