Talk to me about the methods you use to help integrate new employees into the team.
One of the responsibilities of a bank manager is to acquire and retain talent by onboarding, coaching, and developing new employees. The interviewer wants to know what kind of experience you have in this area. Talk about the steps you would take to help a new employee adjust to being part of your team and how you would motivate and teach them.
"To start, I would work hard to be a good role model by always being professional, empathetic, and respectful at all times. My goal is to cultivate a supportive and inclusive environment for my team to work in. I help new hires feel comfortable and included by introducing them to everyone both individually and via a team meeting. I talk to them about both my expectations and the team expectations so we're all on the same page. I also pair them with more senior member of the team who can serve as a mentor or buddy if they have any questions or concerns as they get adjusted."
