I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CIBC (Vancouver, BC) in Dec 2016
Interview
First i got a 5 min call from their recruiter to set a phone call interview, then another 48min call interview the following day from the same person. I advise against accepting an interview the following day, you need more time to prepare.

Quick and easy. Was smooth as I knew the manager ( met her at my previous job). Would recommend to apply on careers page. Good company to work for. Ueuej
Really quick. There wasn’t a lot of questions and I was contacted each week. It was quite short and they really needed people. Most of the questions were basic and focused on customer service rather than balancing.
Just asked to do the assessment task and failed me. This has been happening with the CIBC since 2 years despite getting interviews from other banks. I don't know what could be the problem.
