The branch manager called me one afternoon and wanted to schedule an in-person interview. She asked about my schedule, we selected a date and time, and that was it. She didn't interview me over the phone prior to the in-person interview.
When I arrived for the interview, I was shown to her office by one of the tellers. The branch manager had me sit across from her at her desk and asked me about my previous work experience and education. Given that I was applying for a teller position and not a management position, I was never asked what my greatest strengths or weaknesses are, why I believe my skill set would be a match for the bank, etc. The interview was pretty straightforward and the manager essentially just wanted to know that I'm hardworking, dependable, and capable of committing to the position for at least a few months. Honestly, it was the most painless interview I have ever participated in. A few days later, I received a phone call with my job offer.
Side note: It's worth noting that the work attire is business casual. You're permitted to wear blue jeans on the second Friday of every month if you contribute three dollars to a local charity. Other than that, blue jeans are a no-go. You don't have to wear a suit to work, but blue jeans, shorts, tops with no sleeves, and bare legs aren't accepted. If you're a woman wanting to wear a skirt, your skirt must hit your knees and you must wear pantyhose. Most of the younger female employees aren't fans of pantyhose, so they either wear floor-length skirts or pants. I actually saw a lot of younger women wearing "trendy" clothing, so continuing to shop at places like Maurices suited them just fine.

Question 1
There genuinely weren't any curve balls in this interview. Just dress in business casual attire, be polite, and be willing to take some Saturday shifts.
