One piece of paper cannot showcase the full realm of anyone’s story or what they’re capable of. That’s why Scotiabank is taking a new approach to hiring. Rather than taking resumes, their focus is on building relationships.
Meet Jena Cammisoli - Canadian Campus Recruitment and Programs Leader at Scotiabank. She’s full of energy and loves the way that youth and students challenge her to think differently.
Jena began her journey with Scotiabank as a summer intern. By taking initiative and seeking out new opportunities for growth and development, she began to grow with the company as the years went on, leading her to where she is today!
