I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CIBC (Toronto, ON) in May 2025
Interview
It was all behavioural, they asked you all the basic behaviours you would expect, plus they asked to describe your proficiency with VBA and explain how you use it, but that was pretty much all.

Many rounds. 2 phone screenings, cover letter, 3 back to back with 3 analysts/associates, then three back to back with 4 MDs. Not too difficult, but lots and lots of interviews. Never heard back.
