I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at CGI (Montréal, QC) in Dec 2012
Interview
Best interview and induction process I have ever had. Professional, rapid, simply excellent.
There are always at least two stages: an interview with an HR recruiter to assess you for company fit, followed by one or more interviews with the functional team you will be in.
I was interviewed by the VP I would report to, as well as a few peers. I was favourably impressed that I was interviewed by people who had formerly held the position I was interviewing for. It was very reassuring to see that they were still in the company.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CGI (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2020
Interview
mine was employee referral case, HR called to review relevant experience and expectations, next round was in person with two VPs from the business area where the DCS position was listed. There was no further communication for almost a month since first round. Then they scheduled a second round with SVP. Overall a slow but smooth process.
