Meet with branch manager, then lots of paperwork. Slow with processing reg and licenses but good reasonable process. Expected questions of background and experience sales focus is best. Little finance or investment knowledge actually required. Some is, but success doesn't seem to be correlated to knowledge or ability with finance in the short to mid term it's all sales.
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez BMO Financial Group (Vancouver, BC) en mars 2015
Entretien
Initial phone interview went well. Completed on-line Salespro Assessment. Followed up after a few weeks and told the hiring manager wanted to meet and I did quite well on the assessment. Waited a few more weeks and followed up again and told the position was filled. Disappointed I was told I would be contacted for an interview and then not told the position was filled.

J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez BMO Financial Group (Toronto, ON) en sept. 2012
Entretien
There were three interviews with HR personnel, the District Manager, and the Branch Manager. The interviews largely focussed on your prior sales and marketing abilities to assess your capability to be successful in a career that is 100 percent commission based.
I would recommend for anyone applying for a position as a rookie trainee that they develop a script prior to the interview with ideas of how they plan to prospect and develop a book of clients or a business plan.
