      Consumer Loan Underwriter III Interview

      26 Sept 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Lombard, IL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (Lombard, IL) in Jul 2016

      Interview

      There are typically 2 rounds of interviews at Wells Fargo. First, the human resources team and the actual recruiter will screen the resumes submitted for the position and place a phone call to the applicants who look like they meet all of the qualifications and might be a good fit. This will be a short basic interview likely just about your experience, work history, overview of the position applied for, and any salary expectations. Then the recruiter will select the best phone interview applicants and forward to the actual hiring manager in the business unit to review & schedule a face-to-face interview with any applicants they want to pursue. This will be a 30 minute - 1 hour interview with behavioral based questions in which the manager attempts to gauge your past performance and outcomes when handling certain situations. Corporate HR composes all of the questions in a packet ahead of time and the manager can choose between a list of 2-3 questions for each topic, with around 6 topics total. The manager will rate your responses on a scale of 1-5 (5 being the best) in order to get a rough score of your interview when ranked among other candidates in the selection process.
