Very drawn-out process, multiple “conversations” over an extended period of time. At my 2nd in-person “conversation”, I was told to expect at least two to three more in addition to a potential meet & greet with the location staff. Was told I’d hear back either way, followed up and was told an update was coming and to hang tight, 10 days later, still no communication or update. I check the career portal and find “candidate not selected” however they couldn’t even bother to update me with that, and left me wondering completely. Be very mindful of your time and keep your expectations low when interviewing with WaFd, specifically in Arizona.

I Applied via Online application. The next step the Recruiter reached out and did a phone screen. Once completed moved to an online zoom Interview with the local manager. We discussed goals, branch structure and current environment. Very easy process.

Total of two interviews and then a few weeks to wait for an answer. Screened by HR and moved to hiring manager. Hiring manager didn’t seem to know as many answers to my questions as needed. Ended with next steps.
