The first screening starts with a series of personality and behavioral surveys. Then, there is a video based interview where you have a couple minutes to prepare and answer a couple questions afterwards.
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez HSBC (Londres, Angleterre) en oct. 2024
Entretien
I had to complete two online assessments before being invited to the assessment centre, with only a week's notice. The AC involved three interviews with different bankers, covering a mix of competency, skills, and technical questions. The questions weren’t necessarily hard but were a bit unusual for investment banking, needing a good amount of market knowledge and interpretation skills. The interviewers were friendly and didn’t try to intimidate me, which made the process enjoyable overall. I also received detailed feedback.
