I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at RBC (Toronto, ON) in Sep 2021
Interview
three rounds of interviews, including technical, and behavioral questions. Mainly asked common data science questions like the loss function, ml models, etc. They also asked some NLP questions as well.
Recruiter called, then interview with senior manager. Converesation with them was around 1 hour, some technical for sql/powerbi. Both were pretty basic if you've been in the industry a while
3 round of interviews. One take home assignment. One technical round that contains SQL/Python. One final round with director. Overall it’s not too hard, basic understanding of some frequent used formulas and problem solving skills
