First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at BMO Capital Markets.
Corporate Banking Analyst
It was a multi-round interview. First, I spoke with HR, and then I had a roundtable with some workers. There were a lot of technical and behavioral questions. The first interview with HR was pretty basic, just going over my resume and asking if I could commit to working in the office four days a week, if I was comfortable with credit, and what I knew about the industry.
- Can you describe your experience with credit?
Corporate Banking Analyst
It was a smooth and easy interview, starting with behavioral questions and then moving to valuation-based technical questions. No market questions were asked. They inquired about my leadership, collaboration, projects I've done, and past experiences. The interview was really nice. I haven't seen a second round yet, but it's scheduled for next week.
- What valuation methods would you use for public companies?
- How would you value private companies?
Corporate Banking Analyst
The interview process kicked off with a 30-minute Zoom call with a VP. Following that, there was a second round, a 45-minute Zoom interview with both a VP and a Director. The interviews were about 65% behavioral questions and 35% technical. All in all, it was a pretty straightforward process.
- Can you explain the three financial statements?
- How would you explain $10 of depreciation?
- Please walk me through a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis.
