I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Scotiabank (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2015
Interview
Applied through career website. Received email to arrange phone interview. Few basic questions during the phone interview regarding basic information such as relocation tendencies and study background. Two weeks later face to face interview with a panel of 3 at the company headquarters. 45 minute interview with questions regarding database handling queries, why this position, your understanding of the responsibilities of the position. Be familiar with the nature of the position and its demands and you will be fine. Very friendly environment. Only one technical question.
Amazing interview. Very knowledgeable team and great experience. I would interview anyday again. Employee experience at its finest. Took time and really understood their culture and values. I think its a great fast paced enviornment but pay is a little low
