Based on the most helpful WSO content, Barclays tends to start their recruitment process a bit later compared to other banks. However, the exact timeline for the 2024 grad program in Calgary isn't specified. It's also worth noting that Barclays has a history of opening their diversity applications early, with interviews taking place in March/April.

As for the first rounds, they typically involve a mix of behavioral and technical questions, with an emphasis on your understanding of the role and the industry.

Remember, these timelines and processes can vary year by year and between locations, so it's always a good idea to reach out to industry connections, recruiters, or fellow students who are also in the process. Good luck!
