I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at RBC (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2015
Interview
Met with recruiter on campus, got a phone call asking to schedule a phone interview with 2-3 people on a conference call. Phone interview was a mixture of behavioural questions and technical trivia (you're not implementing anything but they'll ask you about terms like encapsulation). Offer came a few days after.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What's the average runtime complexity for retrieving an element from a hash table?
Quite a typical interview process that started with an introduction, situational questions and conceptual questions. Then we went into more technical scenarios since this position requires working with code as well.
The interview process included an online coding assessment with four programming questions. The first few questions were around LeetCode Easy to Medium difficulty and tested basic problem-solving and coding skills. The final question was significantly more challenging and felt closer to a LeetCode Hard problem. Overall, the assessment became progressively more difficult.

Question 1
One of the questions was a coding problem involving data processing and algorithmic problem-solving. I prefer not to share the exact prompt, but the assessment generally ranged from LeetCode Easy/Medium level to a more difficult final problem.
A simple interview with no technical questions, focused entirely on common behavioral topics. The discussion centered on past experiences, teamwork, communication, and problem solving, with straightforward and familiar questions throughout.
