I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at BMO Financial Group
Interview
I applied for the personal banker job online at the BMO Harris career website. A week later I had an initial phone screening interview. Around a week later, I scheduled an on-site interview. Overall, it was a very typical banker interview. The interviewer was very nice and the questions were all cut and dry.
I interviewed at BMO Financial Group (Vancouver, BC)
Interview
The branch manger didn't really ask anything professional, the interview last about 15 mins . I think they just hire by their first impression. Easy interview, only interviewed once and got the offer two days later.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at BMO Financial Group (Calgary, AB) in Dec 2025
