      Equity Research Associate Interview

      Aug 1, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Scotiabank (Toronto, ON) in May 2017

      Interview

      An interview with HR first. The interview was not technical. Focus on the sector for the specific role would be really helpful. Be well prepared and make sure that you can talk about the sector in a clear and concise way.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Talk about your views on the Aerospace/Transportation sector.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Scotiabank in Feb 2026

      Interview

      Was ghosted after getting through four rounds of interviews. Reached out a handful of times over the 2 to 3 months since the interview process has began. Common courtesy is to give a response, especially if you have been through multiple conversations and met with multiple people, even if it is a rejection. The career portal still says “Application Under Consideration.” How rejected candidates are treated shows the level of professionalism of the employees and organization.
