How I became a Scotiabanker: Kush Sagar came to Canada from New Delhi, India, in 2010 to join his wife Harleen Mahendru, who was then a Senior Personal Banking Officer at Scotiabank. He was impressed with how employee-friendly his wife found Scotiabank, and he decided to look into the courses he needed to start a career with the Bank as well. “I went through her course books and found the content interesting,” says the former software designer. Kush a fast learner, was soon ready for his Mutual Funds exam. In Canada for a little over three months, he was thrilled when Scotiabank offered him a job.
