I applied online. I interviewed at BMO Financial Group (Waterloo, ON) in Apr 2026
Interview
The interview lasted about 1.5 hours and was divided into three parts: ML and recommender systems questions, algorithm and SQL. The questions were medium but the interviewer was friendly and gave enough time to think through the questions.
