      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC in Dec 2014

      Interview

      - Great communications and organisation in the lead up - One telephone interview with basic competency questions - Assessment day involved four interviews and, a group exercise, a written essay and a numerical test - People were sent home after the numerical and at lunch - Everyone there was really helpful, with plenty of networking opportunities throughout the day - It was clear that everyone was trying to get their best out of you

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      - The vehement with which I was told I couldn't want to be an investment banker given previous entrepreneurial work experience - Some challenging technical questions including formulas for a few slightly more obscure ratios
