Phone Interview
Interview
Relatively easy interview process. Consisted of three interviews

All three interviews were purely behavioural. Just have a passion in entering finance as the job is relatively admin heavy. They ask you why did you choose this major, why finance, tell me about a time when you took initiative... etc.

Management had a hard time choosing between several people and later revealed that I was hired because I sent a "thank you" letter.

Had known someone at the firm for quite some time now and emailed them out of nowhere in Jan, just so happened that they were hiring.
Interview Questions
To be honest, nothing really unexpected or difficult. Was asked a lot about stuff that I had on my resume, past experiences, why I wanted to work at RBC, WM, etc, etc... I guess the most difficult part was getting asked about stuff I hadn't thought about in a while. If you're interviewing for a position like this you should be well read and know the news/ current events pretty well since that's a lot of what you'll be doing on the job. Definitely read about what's going on in the markets to ace the interview.
