Answer:
A branch manager will usually have a degree in business administration or a related field. The common educational path into this role makes a conversation about this a good benchmark and starting point for the interview.
Typically this is a role that demands experience in a managerial position. You can ask them specific questions to understand whether they know what a branch manager has to do or must have. Experience in customer service or sales is also helpful.
