I applied through college or university. I interviewed at M&T Bank (Buffalo, NY) in Dec 2012
Interview
Began with a 30-min on-campus interview with a Commercial Real Estate banking officer from NY. Two weeks later, I was invited for an in-house interview. I had 9 interviews in a row (3 with one department and 5 in another - 1 is over the phone -, 1 with HR). Most of the interviews were behavioral, but be prepared to know about M&T and competitors. Also, impress them by knowing ALL about M&T Bank, from its history to all its mergers. My interviews were on Friday and I received an offer on Monday (unexpectedly soon!)
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at M&T Bank in May 2022
Interview
The interview process consists of an initial interview with a dedicated MDP HR manager for entry to the MDP program. Subsequent interviews are for business unit/team placement and are conducted by one or more department managers.

Interview
Applied through University Recruiting. The first interview was over the phone. A week later, I was contacted to schedule another phone interview with someone specifically from the technology department.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you were involved in a group project and someone was not pulling their weight, how did you handle the situation?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at M&T Bank (Buffalo, NY) in Sep 2017
Interview
relatively easy process: 1st round is an easy informational interview, happened 2 weeks after the first round. 2nd round is just as easy, simple questions about resume. Final Round in buffalo was mostly behavioral and fit questions with the managers of the group you’re applying for, no technical or tough curve ball questions.
