I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Toronto, ON) in Sept 2015
Interview
It was around 10-15 min phone interview. Lady was very nice and asked general questions about how I got into finance and what pulled my interest towards fidelity. Talked about the general job description and what kind of duties and responsibilities I would have and then moved on to questions.

I applied online. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Toronto, ON)
Interview
I had a phone interview for the BDA position. The lady was polite and nice but her questions were somehow tricky for a position that does not require any prior working experience. I have a IFIC certificate and she asked me questions like why I choose IFIC instead of CSC, which I don't think it's even fair.... The interview was only 10 min. It was not a hard interview but the questions were weird compare to other interviews I have had.
