What do you know about USAA?
For any interview, it is important to research the company ahead of time. USAA provides banking services to military members, their spouses and their children. They offer insurance solutions, loans, retirement and much more. Do some in-depth research on these products and services and share what you've learned with the interviewer. Another great item to add onto your answer is what products and services you like and maybe even would purchase yourself.
"After doing research on your website, it looks like USAA is a one stop shop for insurance, retirement, banking along with a multitude of other perks. I admire that military members, their spouses and their families have a place to shop for all of life's most important purchases."
"I am actually a member of USAA. I currently have several bank accounts with USAA, so I know that USAA provides excellent banking services. Some other products that I have looked at are insurance and retirement products. I have thought about purchasing a boat as well as have looked into life insurance. I also have family members that are also members at USAA and love it."

I know that USAA provides banking services to military members, their spouses, and children. They are involved in the community and provide insurance, loans, and retirement. Times are getting crazy so I’d love to look into life insurance policies.

It sounds like you have a basic understanding of the types of customers USAA serves and the products and services they offer. If you can share something unique that shows you've done some research, that will add value. Perhaps you can speak to their customer satisfaction rates, or maybe you've read employee reviews and know they are known for their employee culture, etc. Something beyond surface level will stand out against other candidate answers. It's a nice touch at the end to express your own personal interest in their products as well.
