Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) Interview Experiences

Started off with some small talk with the 2 interviewers they seemed young and both of them also went to UofT so I felt a bit less nervous. Basic interview walked them through my resume they wanted me to elaborate on one of my past SWE experiences like what I did there, what I learned and how it helped me in knowing what I wanted to do after I graduate. Then a pseudo technical question it wasn't leetcode but I could tell they probably just pulled a problem from the website so it was more talk out loud how would you do this kind of thing (linked list question) then they let me ask questions during the last 5-10 mins I would say have questions prepared because they expect you will ask.

One 15 min phone call with HR then 30 minute interview with manager. He asked a lot about my university background like courses and ECs and we chatted at the end for a bit about hobbies and football.

Only one interview applied through my school. They wanted to hear about how my past co-op was, what I learned there and how I could apply what I learned to the RBC role interviewers were quite friendly had fun talking with them.

One HR interview asked me to introduce myself and walk her through my resume then another 30 min interview with manager we talked about the team and role mainly why I'd be interested etc.

First round pre recorded then one more round with hiring manager asked about basic technicals (SQL, Github, CI/CD)

First interview was a behavioral interview, asking questions about resume experience, why I want to work at RBC, and some basic situational questions. The second, and final round was a simple Excel technical assessment, testing concepts of data analytics related to a sample dataset provided.

Quick pre recorded interview then one round with hiring manager she was very nice and asked about my past co-op and a project I had listed on my resume sadly got declined a day after interview

No OA, fully behavioural. Good experience so far.
