I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (San Jose, CA) in Apr 2011
Interview
So you apply to all the job postings that you want online wellsfargo.com/careers. You have to make an account and apply for each job post individually. Then you get an email to do a screening. It's a bunch of random aptitude questions. Then you'll get a choice as to when you would like to attend a group interview. This is for your entire metropolitan area. You interview with a recruiting officer. The group interview is about 2 hours long. You have to apply for all the job postings you want online again. Then you'll get an email telling you you can come for another interview-it is either one on one or another group interview. Or you'll get one saying they chose to go a different direction. If you get the former you'll go to a group interview-at least in my case- with a hiring panel. It has the district manager, and the managers at all the stores that have openings in the area. They'll ask you questions. Then at that point they write what they like about you and send it to recruitment who then makes the final decisions. Then the recruiting officer will either call you or email you telling you if you got the job. But careful, then you have to do an online application, set up a date for a fingerprint analysis, then the background check officialpy starts which could take a while. The. After that clears it's another week or two until you go into 2 weeks of mandatory 8-5 training. All in all the hiring process is about 6-8 weeks. It's long for an entry level job. Tips- you don't have to be the first one to answer all of the questions but try to be the third or forth, because sometimes they'll skip to the next question for the sake of time Smile: look the interviewer straight in the eye and smile and make eye contact even when they're talking to the whole group. Dress: Dress better then you think you should. Wear a suit. For girls a blazer and work pants is perfect. They should be wrinkle free and ironed. Stick with neutral colors and minimal makeup. Girls don't ever wear bold lipstick to an interview it's just not appropriate. And no chipped nail polish. Guys- if you wear a suit don't wear a black tie- it's only appropriate for funerals and weddings. Make sure your socks don't show and your tie should match your shirt. Sales- what they're looking for the most is cash experience and sales experience. And people who can learn quickly and easily. Extra friendly is the key word here. They also have customer satisfaction surveys so if you're not great with customers it might not be the right fit.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (Salt Lake City, UT) in Sep 2015
Interview
Phone interview. Recruiter didn't seem to care whatsoever about the interview. She basically read from script & asked me generic questions. No engagement at all. After the phone call she told me that she would pass my resume on to the hiring team & if I didn't hear back in 3-5 days then I can consider myself denied.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2011
Interview
I applied online and received a phone call within two weeks after I had submitted the application. I was asked to attend an orientation with a group of other potential interviewees in the Wells Fargo corporate office in downtown of SF. During the orientation, we went over the history and structure of the company. The recruiter then talked to us one on one and told us that they will get in contact with us. I received a call within a week from a manager at the location of the Wells Fargo I had requested to work in. I went in for an initial interview with the manager and was hired on the spot.
