I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CIBC (Regina, SK) in July 2016
Interview
they called me for 1 phone interview on phone and the lady was very polite and generous in talking to me, she asked me questions like what are your short term goals & long term goals. She also asked me for my past experience in sales. I was called for my 2 & final interview which was face to face. They hired me calling 2 days later. :)
