I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at RBC (Princeton, NJ) in Sep 2011
Interview
3 phone interviews with the hiring manager, HR screening, and an office manager. No in-person interviews. Had to pay for my own fingerprinting and background check, which then was misfiled and I had to do it all over again.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All the basics. No scenarios or logic questions like others reported. They asked my background and tested me on basic IT terms and acronyms. No questions about trading or financials.
