Superday fit interview
A VP fit conversation closing out the superday; culture-weighted
What they actually ask
The question shapes this round uses. Larpy does not read these out. It builds each one from your own resume, because the generic version is the one you have already rehearsed.
- “Walk me through your resume, and tell me what you actually did.”
- “Why BMO, and why not another bank?”
- “What do you know about BMO Capital Markets?”
- “Tell me about a time you handled pressure or a tight deadline.”
- “Tell me about a time you worked with someone difficult.”
- “What questions do you have for me?”
What this round is judged on
- Motivation · a durable, specific 'why BMO'
- Maturity · ownership and self-awareness in your stories
- Culture fit · someone a VP would want on the desk
- Communication · structured, genuine answers under follow-ups
