The teller test (AKA bank cashier exam) provides a comprehensive assessment of a candidate's
The bank teller exam is challenging because it requires candidates to showcase a wide range of skills and competencies.
Some aptitude exams have strict time limits, requiring you to think quickly while still providing accurate answers.
Let’s try some free bank teller practice test questions to gauge your overall level of readiness.
The following bank assessment test questions and answers are taken from the JobTestPrep preparation,
They offer a preview of the question types and topics you can expect on the real bank teller test.
A customer approaches your window and starts to complain.
"I have been waiting here for half an hour I'm about to be late for a meeting now because everyone here is taking their time. I need to deposit this check ASAP".
How do you respond?
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
The best answer is A.
The core competency being tested here is stress tolerance. You are presented with a stressful situation – an angry customer who is blaming you for something which is not your fault. In such a situation, you need to show self-control and an ability to diffuse the customer’s anger. Let’s consider the options to deal with this situation:
A – Here you show concern for the customer’s feelings and offer the best solution you have. By doing this, you show him that you are on his side and want to help.
B – Apologizing for the customer’s inconvenience is always a good idea. The suggestion regarding a better time to come to the branch is generally a good one too, but this is not the timing for it. The customer already waited in line and is frustrated – at the moment, an acknowledgment of his frustration would be more beneficial to him.
C – Here too your explanation sounds like an excuse to the angry customer. It’s good to maintain the bank’s reputation – the best way to do this is to show the customer that the bank’s representatives care about him as a customer and do their best to help.
D – This course of action shows that you are unable to remain calm when under stress. You want to show that you can remain courteous and professional at all times.
While processing a customer's check, you notice missing data on the deposit slip and that the check isn't signed.
When you ask the customer to complete these details, he responds angrily, saying:
"The details are on the check. Can't you handle it later? I'm in a hurry."
What will you do?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The best answer is D.
The core competencies being tested here are conscientiousness (following procedures) and stress tolerance. Here you need to show your ability to remain professional and courteous under stress. You also need to show that you follow procedures.
A – Although it is important to keep customers satisfied, your loyalty to the bank and the importance of following procedures need to come first. You can’t sign the check for the customer.
B – Here you show that you follow regulations and you explain the reason for your refusal. Generally, when you need to refuse a customer’s request, it is a good idea for you to explain the rationale behind the procedures to the customer – this could help them understand and feel less frustrated.
C – This option adheres to the regulation, but it doesn’t show agreeableness – you don’t help him by filling the details you can or explaining why you can’t accept the check immediately.
D – Here you show empathy for the customer’s stress and willingness to help while still following regulations.
B and D both contain an element of empathy for the customer while maintaining the regulation. While the regulation is followed in both options, D shows more willingness to help and makes the customer feel that you are on his side. Therefore, D is the better answer choice.
Pre-employment assessments for bank teller positions feature scenarios where you act as a teller, assisting customers while answering questions.
These tests primarily include Situational Judgment Tests (SJT) and Attention to Detail exercises.
Each customer will present a problem or conflict, and you'll need to describe how you would handle the situation.

A specific bank branch serves 256 clients on average every day.
The ratio between tellers and clients is 1:32, so that every teller serves 32 people on average every day.
The management wishes to change this ratio to 1:20. How many new tellers should be hired?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
Answer:
First, we determine the approximate number of tellers currently in the branch by dividing the total number of clients.
256, by the clients-per-teller ratio of 32 to 1.
This calculation is 256/32 = 8.
Therefore, there are currently 8 tellers working in the branch.
Next, we calculate the number of tellers that should be working to maintain the same number of clients.
256, but with a clients-per-teller ratio of 20 to 1.
256/20 = 12.8.
Since we cannot have a fraction of a teller, we round this number up to 13.
To determine how many additional tellers management should hire, we subtract the current number of tellers from the desired number.
13 - 8 = 5.
Therefore, management should hire 5 more tellers.
Cynthia has a monthly net income of $4,300, which is directly deposited into her checking and savings accounts.
The deposits are split in a ratio of 1:3 between her savings and checking accounts, respectively.
How much does Cynthia deposit into her savings account each month?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
To find out how much money is deposited into Cynthia's savings account each month, we need to use the ratio of the deposits and her total net income.
This means the total income is divided into 4 parts, with 1 part going to savings and 3 parts going to checking.
Since 1 part of the ratio goes to the savings account:
Cynthia deposits $1,075 into her savings account each month.
The correct answer is D.

Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong

The correct answer is B.
