Palpable Score

76.5
/ 100
Scotiabank is a strong early-career option because Scotiabank runs recurring internships and co-ops throughout the year and backs new graduates with named rotational development programs under the TILT umbrella. Scotiabank is also more transparent than many banks on “what happens next” in hiring and offers real training infrastructure, but Scotiabank shares limited cohort-level outcomes (conversion rates, retention, promotion timing), which caps the score.
