I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Scotiabank (Toronto, ON) in Dec 2016
Interview
Simply 2 step test and direct video call. I waited 2 weeks as promised to confirm an offer. First I applied online then got confirmation of application after 3 weeks I got a call for interview. I was told the online simulation test would be first and if I passed, another interview would follow. My request to chose a time for my interview came the next day and after a video interview the day I choose( 3 days later) I got an offer exactly 2 weeks later.
