This is not the job description for this position.

I was seeking advice on the WDA telephone represenative position and this is the description that Wachovia gives for this position. As far as a Teller Manager I haven't began to look into this position yet. Thanks for the heads up!

I had my phone interview on Monday and the interviewer sounded as if she was having a bad day. She asked me questions about my previous jobs and when I answered, she said (with an attitude) that the question was pertaining to customer service. Well why didn't she specify that she wanted a call center experience. I spoke with someone else who told me I could reapply for the position but sent me an email saying that I wasn't picked to take the assesment. How can that be when I was picked the first time????

You were just a victim of things to come if you were hired. Try another bank if you want to get into that line of work. Wachovia is too big for themselves and management is no up to par right now.

i have my phone interview coming up and i would like to know the interview questions

WDA AT THE COLUMBIA SC LOCATION

Has anyone gotten the WDA Phone Rep position? If so, can you give any insight about it? I got an email to schedule my phone interview, so I'm still early in the process. I applied for the Columbia position. I lived in Cola for 5 yrs until June of '08 and am looking to relocate back to the area if possible. The shift they're hiring for sucks (3pm-12am), but it's better than being unemployed. Is Wachovia worth making the move back??
