Based on previous WSO threads, it seems that delays in hearing back from BMO Capital Markets, especially for positions like Analyst roles in Power & Utilities (P&U) in Toronto, are not uncommon. Networking heavily with the team is a great move, but it’s also worth noting that some users have reported that BMO tends to wait until the end of the application period before moving forward with interviews or offers.

If you’ve already networked extensively, consider following up with your contacts politely to inquire about the status of your application. A brief email expressing continued interest and asking for any updates can go a long way. Additionally, ensure your resume is aligned with the role and that you’re prepared for potential interviews, as BMO is known for rigorous processes.

If you’re still waiting, patience is key, but don’t hesitate to explore other opportunities simultaneously to keep your options open.
