Once you clear online assessments, the on-campus interview rounds begin.
Technical Interview:
Self-introduction, discussion of your project(s) and resume. Then there were questions on OOPs, sorting algorithms, data structures, basic system design questions (entities, classes) and some easy puzzles.
If you clear this round, then you will have the HR round directly.
Questions like: Tell me something not on your resume, Why HSBC, past teamwork/leadership, how you deal with pressure or conflicting feedback.
The interviewers were generally friendly from my experience and from the experience of other candidates too.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
One of the questions they asked was:
“Walk me through a technical challenge you faced in a project and how you solved it.”
I described a performance issue I encountered while building a web application, where inefficient database queries slowed response time. I walked through how I identified the bottleneck using logs and query profiling, optimized the queries using indexing, and validated improvements through testing.
They wanted to evaluate structured problem-solving, clarity of thought, and ability to translate technical work into business value.
