We're excited to announce that we're kicking off our Early Careers in AI week with a Recruitment Information Session with the Bank of Montreal! This dedicated information session will give you a chance to learn about internships, new graduate roles, key AI projects, and organizational culture. You'll be able to network with AI representatives via live audio and video and make meaningful connections.

After that, on January 20th, we'll be hosting our Launching Your Career in AI recruitment event, spotlighting early career roles by our various employer partners. The event will begin with talks from AI practitioners, a panel discussion highlighting different Applied & Research use cases in AI, and then a speed networking session focused on internships for Summer 2023 and post-degree positions for Summer/Fall 2023. 

Finally, our week concludes with another Information Session with the Royal Bank of Canada on January 25. This event will be hybrid at both Vector's office as well as online. RBCers across Technology & Operations, Chief Data Office, and Personal and Commercial Banking will present their team’s mandates and priorities as well as any current and upcoming roles. Networking and speed interviews will follow team presentations. Due to capacity and space limitations, RBC encourages Vector’s upcoming grads and alumni to attend the session in person and looks forward to meeting all others virtually.
