Interviewers need to be aware of any potential conflicts of interest when working with money, and it is imperative to be candid with the interviewer about any relationships you have with people who work in the industry.
Think through your friends, immediate family, and extended family. Do any of them work for a bank, credit union, or mortgage company? If so, tell the interviewer the person's relationship to you, where they work, and what role they work in. In many cases, these links are not a big deal. The bank just wants to be aware of them.

Good. Can you expand on what you learned about the industry second-hand? Why did this seem like a good career move based on what you learned?

Yes, I have a cousin that has worked for US Bank for many years. Other than that, just acquaintances.
Amanda's Feedback
Having close personal connections to those working in the industry can sometimes explain an individual's attraction to banking. However, that isn't always the case. You can take this opportunity to express what you've heard about working in banking from others that made you want to transition into working in the field.
