I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC in Mar 2017
Interview
apt test(verbal, numerical)-> 50 minutes phone interview, asking about what department you want to enter, and some of your background information and ask you to provide some situations such as working with others.
The interview is carried out by phone. The questions are not very difficult. Include only some basic questions such as tell me about yourself, why you would like to apply the job in HSBC, tell me about your teamwork experience. The phone interview lasts for 30mins. Overall, I feel comfortable towards the interview setting.
I have completed the aptitude test first and the have the phone call interviews. The phone call interviews is divided by 2 parts. The first one is conducted in English. It is quite general and it requires your knowledge in HSBC. The second one is conducted in Chinese and it mainly talks about your experience.
