      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Scotiabank (London, ON) in May 2022

      Interview

      It has taken longer than expected. About a month to complete the interviews and the whole process. It took about 1 week after applying to be contacted for first interview and then another 15 days for second interview. The interviewer was to the point and not very friendly, but very honest and clear about pay and what I will need to do once I start.
