Loan Officer Interview Questions

"As a loan officer, both your financial and customer service skills are heavily valued for accepting and rejecting loans. In an interview context, prepare to talk about how you negotiate, what you believe makes a good salesman, and what you do to ensure that you meet your monthly loan closing goals. In addition, you may have to role-play a scenario where you must inform a client that they could not be given a loan because of their credit, or other criteria. To ace your interview, show that you have a motivated attitude and skilled in building personal relations with realtors."

Transit Employees Federal Credit Union

CEO stated that all employees get the "TEFCU spill" and was required to adhere to it. Which is the vision of the credit union and employees need to do their part to bring the vision to fruition. There is a false preception that it is a family oriented company however employees are required to work late hours (10 hours daily) Monday - Friday and 4 hours on Saturday and there is no excuse not to.

4 Answers

I have family obligations, but I will be a team player and do my part on special promotions/projects. Less

You are correct. Working for TEFCU means you will work 10 hours a day minimum. The CEO does not like it when people ask for work/life balance. Less

TEFCU is definitely NOT family oriented. If you call out sick because your child is sick, they ask for proof and medical records. Less
