There was an online asessment round which was pretty brutal. Out of 300 or so who applied only 30 got selected to the next round. And those who submitted the assessment past a given time were disqualified on the spot
1st round: self intro with HR .
2nd round : some basic understanding of department campaign and some about the cv ( not very hard and takes about 30 min)
I applied online. I interviewed at HSBC (Milán) in Jun 2026
Interview
Il primo round è stato un colloquio con un HR, un senior analyst e il capo di un team. L'area di interesse era FIG coverage. Primo round motivazionale e conoscitivo, con round successivi più tecnici.
3x 30 minute interviews with competency, finance technical and case study followed by qna. Assessment centre had 4 of us total though interviews were 1 to 1. Tiring but a good experience
