HSBC Chef De Projet interview questions

Initial offer for a telephone interview received via email, followed by scheduling arrangements. Actual telephone interview consisted of a half hour call with a prearranged HR person, focusing on interactions with others and examples of challenges faced in current/historic situations. Overall experience was excellent, friendly and very good communications all round. This was followed by face to face with mid level recruiting couple on site in London, again arranged via email and associated phone confirmation.

The hiring mgr asked quite a lot of tricky hands on questions. Asked me what is the Fatca, what is the most challenging part in my daily work. Asked me some scenario questions as well to simulate how I will face the problem and how to solve it. The mgr was a pushy one and tried to put you in a difficult situation. Particularly hard to answer his question on how much I'm making right now.
