I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at BMO Financial Group (Montreal, QC) in Mar 2024
Interview
Asked me at one point during the interview if we could speak English in order to see my level of English as I’m French, but the interviewer couldn’t even line up a sentence in English correctly ! As we say in French “c’est l’hôpital qui se fout de la charité!”
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked if I was comfortable with the idea of having to deal with both French and English customers
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
