I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC (Londres, Inglaterra) in Nov 2014
Interview
The Assessment Centre started with a numerical test, then case study, lunch, motivation interview and technical interview. You will be about ten people for the M&A division. The atmosphere is relaxed, but you should keep concentrated. During the lunch you have to talk with as many people as possible.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The numerical test will be quite difficult, you will have less time than online.
