I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at RBC (Toronto, ON) in May 2023
Interview
That was very friendly! There were some technical and logical questions (e.g. programming / algorithm, SQL, etc.) but not live coding. We also talked about bonds, equities, and other investment possibilities in financial markets.
Other Data Analyst Intern Interview Reviews for RBC
wasn't bad at all. 50/50 in terms of behavioral and technical. the people were extremely nice and the questions asked were things you should be aware of from the JD. No live coding, just questions that make you think on how to answer with examples. Still waiting to see if i got in!

Question 1
Tell me a time you solved a problem at work and how you approached it.
Thirty minute interview, fifteen minutes behavioural and then the rest was spent on an easy SQL / Python problem. Coding wasn't mentioned in the email interview invite. Behavioural questions were general behavioural questions to get you talking about your skills and questions about your background and previous experience.
