As a Sales and Service Specialist my main role was to take care of the customers. I ensured that their every need was met and I discovered more through getting to know each and every one of my customers. I was able to help them in the teller line or in the platform, in order to better build rapport and trust.

My time as a Teller was spent ensuring that every person left with a smile, a perfectly completed transaction and with all their needs met. I helped refer people to the bankers who could help them with their savings and banking goals, as well as helped Latin customers get more involved in their banking because I was the only bilingual associate in my bank.
