It was a quick process, I got a reply the day after the interview. Standard interview questions were asked. They described the expectations, I presented my current role, and we talked about salary expectations. We also discussed why I want to choose Desjardins and why I'm looking to change jobs.

Behavioral Case

The interviews are typically conducted with two interviewers in a casual setting, and in French. The focus is on your ability to collaborate within a diverse team and motivate members during challenging projects. There are many situational questions, and it can be difficult to gauge if your answers are correct. It might be unsettling that the actual interview focus differs from the job description.
