I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Scotiabank (Lethbridge, AB) in Jan 2012

Starts with a phone call that outlines your interests and asks for any clarifications on your resume. Next a online personality test is sent out to you. Then a 2 page questionnaire outlining your skills, motivations, why scotiabank?, and where you want to end up in the future. Next is a phone call interview that is roughly 60-90 min long. This is consisted of behavioral questions. Lastly, is a group interview with two branch managers which lasted roughly 30-45 minutes.

The interview was over the phone and was fairly straight forward. I got my response and feedback that my references will be contacted the same day which was very cool!
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Scotiabank (Chaguanas)
Interview
After 4 months from having applied for the position, the HR contacted and requested a panel interview to be held the next day virtually. There is a form to fill out with basic information, half of which is in your resume. They also need copies of all academic certificates. The panel interview involved 3 persons. They asked a few open ended questions, such as what can you bring to the company. They have scenario based questions such as a sales scenario where you have to choose a product and then sell it to them. What will you do if you aren't meeting sales targets and what would you do if someone wants a loan but cannot afford it but you're sure that they can. They indicated that within 3 weeks feedback would be provided. No response has been received (its the 4th week)
