I applied online. I interviewed at Scotiabank (Edmonton, AB) in Jan 2018
Interview
Recording video style interview, very impersonal and vague.
Set time limit to answer the questions asked.
So, I feel like there wasn’t enough time to answer those questions properly.
At-last I submitted the video and in a week or so got an email saying we will not be moving forward .
Good very helpful, they have the right people conducting these interviews. Overall great experience but did not accept. Better process than the rest would recommend to whomever. Job entails basic csr like responsibilities plus selling
Very chilled and eye opening. They asked me a few questions and more details on my resume. They were very patient and listened. Just be very authentic too it saves
