I applied through university. I interviewed at HSBC (New York, NY) in Jul 2018
Interview
One day of interviewing with all members of the direct team the position was part of. I had two 1-on-1 interviews - one with the manager of the whole team and the other with the person who worked on the program within the team that I was interviewing to work on. The two team members who worked on a different program within the team interviewed me together. Some technically questions from the manager but most of the questions were aimed at opening up conversation and seeing if I would be a good fit on the team and for the program, which aligned with my expectations for a relatively entry-level corporate position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
On the technical side one thing they asked what banking/financial regulations I was familiar with.
Video interview with scenario questions. Some related to interaction with office colleagues and others on scenarios for AML compliance management. Additional questions on your CV and questions on strengths/weaknesses. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Question 1
What are some security risks related to virtual bank KYC?
Didn’t get through. Personality test is something not easy and we need to be prepared for and understand how it works, in order not to get kicked off. It was just a pity.

Firstly is CV screening, online test, followed by an assessment centre. If successful, then there will be a final interview round. There will be associates and VPs leading the interviews and potentially HRs.
