Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Scotiabank.
Manager
It was a pretty fast process. They were available for any doubts or updates. The manager also had good availability and communication. The process had 3 interviews over about 2 months.
- Tell me about your experience.
- What are your soft skills?
- How do you fit into the company culture?
Senior Manager
My interview with this person was fine; they asked some tough questions. It felt like they had a specific candidate in mind. The interviewer said, "We don't like to leave candidates hanging, so you'll hear from us soon." But HR never followed up, and even though I reached out to the HR person twice via their personal email, they never responded. It was really unprofessional because people spend time and energy interviewing. If it's a no, they should just say so.
- Can you describe a typical day in your last job and explain how it connects to this position?
Relationship Manager
So there were three interviews. They were focused on behavioural stuff like collaboration, self-awareness, and teamwork. Then situational questions about how to solve problems, deal with difficult clients and colleagues, using STAR situations. And finally, technical questions about financial analysis of companies, including ratios, financial metrics, cash flow statements, linking the three financial statements, structuring deals, and economy & industry knowledge.
