I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at CIBC (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2023
Interview
1st Interview was with a Senior Project Manager where I was able to ask all my questions. 2nd was with the PMO director - Professional Services. I described the projects I worked on as they related to the role at CIBC
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about your project financial experience and what financial tools you used
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CIBC in Jan 2026
Interview
Two interviews, one with HR, one with the hiring team. The process was very slow at first. It took roughly a month to get a reply, then things moved quickly, then it took another month for a final decision. I had accepted another offer by then. Everyone I interviewed was friendly, polite and asked good questions.
The interview process typically involves an initial screening, followed by technical and behavioral assessments, project management case studies, stakeholder communication evaluation, methodology discussions, risk management scenarios, and final negotiations on salary and expectations.
Met with PMO head.
2nd interview with Dev, BA, and a Sr PM
3rd interview with business partners
and this must have at least thirty words but I think that you get the idea
