Over the course of 30 days I had a phone screen with a recruiter as well as two interviews with different district managers. After the process I was made an offer and went through the background screening process. The screening that they did took about 2 weeks to come back. After the background screening clears you get a call from a special department that informs you that you are cleared to start.

It lasted for 2.5 hours. It was going great and the leadership questions were exactly what you would expect. However, they got into the sales processes and it got really serious. The regional did a role play with me and then did one with one of her branch managers. My scenario was with an existing customer and the branch managers was with a potential customer that had just come into the bank to set up an account. The existing branch manager of course knew their products and a new customer would require more questions. They made me feel inadequate and not only was I nervous but the Chase branch manager had a few things in her favor. They said Chase had a great training program so considering I was very successful at my last branch management position, it seems obvious I could learn their sales processes. The regional promised to contact me either way in a couple of weeks but I never heard a word from her. The interview was thorough but why ask the leadership questions if all that mattered was sales! I had 3 referrals and apparently that added no value either. Extremely disappointed.
