I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at TD (Brampton, ON) in Dec 2011
Interview
Got a call a week after submitting resume. In-branch interview followed. I had to go to Burlington to submit reference check info. (this is done by an external company). I had 2 weeks of training before entering the branch, and then I had a week of job-shadowing. Training was good, but it is a lot to learn at once, and very different with a customer in front of you.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to deal with a difficult customer.
I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at TD (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2013
Interview
I applied in-person and met the manager in the branch. Next day I got a phone call to arrange an interview. 1 week later I got a phone call to arrange the 2nd interview. Interviews were about 20 to 30 minutes each. Questions are more behavioral .
After I passed the interviews and my profile went to HR, the process got slower, for example, the background/reference check took 2 weeks.
