Very simple and straightforward. Introductory call with recruiter, if they like you, you will be moved onto the next stage, which is a conversation with your program manager. Should you move onto the next stage there is a 4 person panel interview, with the program manager as one of the people on the panel. Overall not a stressful experience as they really want to see if you are capable of learning and being coachable. Knowledge of accounting and the basics of credit helped me a lot, but I only received questions based off of my resume.

Interview
The process started with a call with the recruiter, who asked general experience-based questions to get to better know my motivations for applying and why I was interested in M&T. I then moved on to two rounds, both with two individuals per round (SVPs or higher). These rounds were all behavioral based and lasted 30 minutes per round. The SVPs cared about fit with the specific team you're interviewing with (in my case, I interviewed with enterprise customer growth, so they wanted to know if I have customer-facing experiences). I then waited 1 month before the recruiter called me about the final round interview. This final round was with a Senior Executive Vice President, lasting 40 minutes and all behavioral based as well. I heard back with an offer a few days after.

Background Check
Interview
The initial call with HR was set up at the end of August and the call took place at the beginning of September. After this call there was a long period of not hearing anything back, then in December, the HR recruiter emailed me a department that was interested in interviewing me. The interview was with two managers, lasted about 30-40 minutes, and was all behavioral questions. I received an offer within 4-5 days of my second interview and had a week to accept or decline.
Interview Questions
The interview was all behavioral and pretty much the typical questions any interviewer will ask you. The only question that took me off guard, and this was on me, was to explain my second major and why I chose it.
