Mesa, AZ

Former Employee – worked at First Convenience Bank part-time for less than a year

ProsThe interview was like any other interview in a retail store they asked you simple questions do you have experience in cross-selling. Also did some role playing which my "subject" was a pen i describe every detail of the pen to the buyer needs. Every first convenience bank is located inside a Walmart very low moral standing 6 hours a day attacking every customer that walks past you also going into aisle approaching customers. The CO-worker i had were so greedy and the branch manager was so not experience did not know how to manage. The co-worker did not care about team player it was all about who ever can open the most account had my account open from one of my co worker and she put it under her name. To become a manager does not take much at all no degree needed just make lot of sales and you can become a branch manager.

ConsAnyone can be manager no degree required

Advice to Senior ManagementVery shady co worker, Rude comments about each other not professional.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
