I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at BMO US (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2010
Interview
Internal interview conducted by hiring manager, peers to hiring manager and peers to role. Highly behavioral and conceptual questions. Requires review of examples of prior work and several meetings to discuss potential work deliverables. Interviewers were very cordial, yet professional. I learned a good deal about the potential challenges of the position. Upon accepting I encountered a few "land mines'" but doubt that the situations could have been addressed during the interview sessions.
