Outlook
Job growth is expected to decline for bank tellers. Many customers use ATMs and direct deposit for paychecks and benefit checks. This has reduced the need for bank tellers. In addition, electronic and mobile banking is becoming very common. Many bank customers can also call a 24-hour telephone center. Phone centers handle a wider variety of transactions than tellers, such as applications for loans and credit cards.
Many openings will occur as workers leave this career or retire.
