I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at M&T Bank in Feb 2018
Interview
I applied for the retail branch development program for upcoming graduates. The interview was on campus with a current VP branch manager from a branch near me. She was very nice and seemed interested in what I was saying and answered all my questions. It lasted around 30 minutes and was mostly easy behavioral questions and questions about my resume. I was super disappointed because she said I would hear back within a week. I sent a follow up thank you email and still never heard back, it's been around a month and not even a rejection email. Super disappointed in M&T for that because it's super unprofessional and I didn't expect that from such a well known bank.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at M&T Bank (Buffalo, NY)
Interview
Literally a terrible interview process. Applied online and was emailed by a recruiter there to set up an interview. Literally the most uninterested employee who seemed so mad. Asked zero relevant questions to the job, and halfway through realized she was asking me questions for a different role. It’s all behavioral and situational stuff but just a terrible interview, recruiter obviously didn’t want to be there.
