Likely interview questions for this role

Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.

About your past

You'd be asked to recognize cross-sell opportunities and pass customers to the right person. How do you do that without sounding like you're selling?

What they are checking: Whether they can refer customers to other services naturally and helpfully, since the role expects referrals without making customers feel pressured.

Tell me about a customer who was angry with you over something you couldn't change.

What they are checking: Whether they stay calm and kind with an upset customer when they can't change the outcome, which happens regularly at a teller window.

The posting says you may be responsible for opening or closing the branch. What does that responsibility mean to you?

What they are checking: Whether they understand the trust and security responsibility of opening or closing a branch, since that role protects people, cash and the building.

What would you do

Your drawer is short forty dollars at close. What do you do?

What they are checking: Honesty and the discipline to report rather than cover it

A customer wants to cash a check and something about their identification doesn't look right. How do you handle it?

What they are checking: Whether they can follow identification rules firmly while staying polite, because protecting customers from fraud matters even when the conversation is uncomfortable.

You must be available to work all shifts including Saturdays, and travel between branches may be necessary. Does that work for you?

What they are checking: Whether they can genuinely work every shift, including Saturdays, and travel between branches, so scheduling problems don't surface after they start.

The role requires lifting up to fifty pounds and standing for long periods. How does that sit with you?

What they are checking: Whether they can comfortably meet the physical demands of lifting and long standing, asked plainly so there are no surprises after they start.

The posting asks for at least six months of cash handling or customer service experience and a high school diploma, with an estimated hourly rate of $19.00 to $21.00. Does that work for you?

What they are checking: Minimum requirements and posted pay, confirmed before either side goes further

About the work

This is a part-time teller position in Delafield. Walk me through how you balance a drawer at the end of a shift.

What they are checking: Whether cash handling is a routine they own or something someone checked for them

The job asks you to develop skills to recognize potential fraud and report it. What would make you suspicious about a transaction at the window?

What they are checking: Whether they can recognize signs of fraud at the window without treating customers as suspects, since tellers are often the bank's first line of defense.
