I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC (London, England) in Nov 2014
Interview
I was interested in two fields - equity research and sth else. The HR lady went super rude when heard it - why am I not specialized, I should have only chosen one, what do I even think of myself that I am here. And it was not even a real interview, rather campus-recruiting thingy. The guy who was from another field, and asked me technical questions, he was totally cool!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What kind of valuation methods do you know? Which is the best?
the interview process was very quick and simple they did not go into detail regarding what the role is about they just asked why i wanted to join hsbc and one other question, it ended in 10minutes
The interview and the interviewers were really friendly and warm, especially for a student with not much experience. The process may be daunting but the interview was good. the questions were mainly about fit questions so just be aware of yourself.
I applied online. I interviewed at HSBC (Singapur)
Interview
One round of interview started by self-intro then mainly focus on experiences on CV. The interviewer asked many detailed questions about project experiences on CV. Overall experience is professional and good.
