STRUCTURED BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW

We’re sure you’ve had many experiences during an interview in which you’ve wondered “Why are they asking me this question?”, “How does this question relate to the position?”, or “Here we go again with what my three strengths are...”  At Wachovia, we don’t feel that these types of questions provide us with information that will help us make an accurate hiring decision.

Instead, we use an approach that has been proven to be the most accurate, behavioral-based interviewing process available. Although this interviewing approach is being used more frequently, it may feel very different from traditional interviewing that you’ve experienced. 

Our interviews give you the opportunity to share detailed information about how you have performed in previous work-related situations. We’ll ask you to share with us examples or specific situations that you’ve encountered and dealt with in the past. In addition, we’ll ask you about your interests and give you an opportunity to inquire about our organization and career opportunities. The type, number of interviews and interviewers, length, and complexity of questions will vary depending on the specific position for which you are being considered.
