I interviewed at WaFd Bank (Bellingham, WA) in Jun 2015
Interview
The interview process was really comfortable with my manager at the branch I would eventually be hired at. It felt like more like a conversation than an interrogation (how interviews usually can feel like). It was easier for me to talk about myself and to communicate effectively. But it definitely varies from branch to branch and hiring managers.
