What is more, try to think about the employer when answering this question. Wanting to become a teller just because you like the working environment in a bank, and the reputation of their financial institution, or because you will be satisfied with the job, is rather self-centered.
Try to find a better reason for your application. You can tell them that you believe you will bring value to their team with your excellent customer service skills. I have strong communication skills, and I enjoy talking to people.
I believe I can become a great teller, and that is the reason why I apply for this job. I am interested in banking products, and I like to help people. Position of a teller offers a unique chance to combine the two in one job. It is definitely my first choice for an employment, since I am young and can not apply for any senior role in banking at the moment. Facility with numbers and skill in arithmetic are musts. Additionally, the increasing computerization of banking operations makes computer literacy highly desirable.
Good tellers are comfortable dealing with customers, have strong oral communication skills and are good listeners. The BLS reports that such training typically lasts about a month. The basic duties of a bank teller include cashing checks, making deposits, processing loan payments and withdrawing funds from customer accounts. Bank tellers also assist customers with opening and closing accounts.
The job requires adhering closely to rules and regulations regarding the verification of customers' identities, the accounts and transactions that they are permitted to access or initiate, and the amounts of funds that may be placed at their disposal. Tellers also must adhere to various reporting requirements. The rules and regulations in question are a mix of those set by law or by banking regulators, and those peculiar to the individual bank. In some banks and banking environments, the teller's role may be expanded to assess customers' needs and to market certain products and services to them.
Both this aspect of the job and that related to rule enforcement demand a keen sense of judgment, going far beyond a rote adherence to routine. A 40 hour work week is typical, but it can be longer, given the trend for banks to accommodate customers with longer hours, including nights, Saturdays and even Sundays in some cases.
The old days of "banker's hours" that stretched only from 9 to 3, Monday to Friday, are long since past. Those who enjoy working with people can find interacting with customers an enjoyable aspect of the job. It is particularly true for those fortunate enough to become tellers in bank branches with light to moderate levels of customer traffic, in which time pressure is not a major issue. Depending on the bank and on the initiative of the individual, a bank teller job can be a steppingstone to higher-level jobs in banking.
The most obvious next step is as an officer supervisor within a branch. In very busy urban bank branches, tellers can be under severe pressure and find the job physically and mentally draining.
The problem can be compounded if the customer base is demanding and hurried. Under such time pressure, the possibility of making computational errors is enhanced, leading to yet more stress. After the branch closes, depending on the volume of transactions during the day, and the size and efficiency of the staff, the process of proving up tellers' work during the day can be a lengthy and stressful process.
