I applied online. I interviewed at Neo Financial (Toronto, ON) in Jun 2026
Interview
Efficient, well-run process. All interviews were scheduled within a week, and I got a decision just two days after the final round — a refreshingly fast turnaround compared to most companies. The recruiter screen and hiring-manager rounds were professional,
The final round included a VP. That stage was more observational — the hiring manager led the questions while the VP mostly listened, which is fine, but candidates should know the final round can feel less interactive than the earlier ones.
Ultimately wasn't selected, but you can expect a respectful, well-organized process with quick communication throughout which is not the case elsewhere
It was a three-step process, once you submit an application you are taken to HeyMilo, where you get to record a video interview. This is mainly questions about what you do when you aren't hitting your goals / failures and what you do to keep yourself motivated. Since this is a sales role in a high traffic location, this is something that is bound to happen. After this, when they like your stuff, you will meet the regional hiring / district manager who will then screen you. Once she has made her decision, you will be extended an offer via phone, and then an email with the details.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your experience in a sales environment, when you are experienced, they ask you about a specific sales experience in your CV.
A recruiter reached out to me regarding a screening call for the position. On the scheduled date, he joined more than 10 minutes late and immediately began asking about my background and experience without first providing an overview of the role, team, or company. I redirected the conversation toward understanding the opportunity itself. In response, he questioned whether I had read the job description before proceeding.
I asked several basic questions about the role, including the organizational structure, who currently owns the function, how success would be measured, and the reason for hiring at this time. The responses were largely indirect and dismissive, with the recruiter repeatedly stating that these questions would be better addressed by the hiring manager.
Overall, the experience felt more like a sales pitch than a professional recruiting conversation. Rather than assessing mutual fit between a candidate and an organizational need, the interaction felt heavily focused on advancing the recruiter’s agenda while providing limited transparency about the role itself.
