I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC (London, England) in Nov 2021

Online Immersive simulation, behavioral questions, numerical questions, analyzing and computing data. It takes about 1h or more. It is not timed. Then there is job simulation interview with pre recorded questions

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a set of data and asked to analyse it and explain your results in the form of a HV
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at HSBC (London, England) in Nov 2023
Interview
I will specifically cover Job Simulation process, at this stage you will be required to take a video of yourself answering some questions. There will not be many, the videos you will have to take will be around 1-2 min long and you will have 2 min to read the question and prepare your answer. So I that sense all of you should find that pretty easy.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
Video Questions Q1. Test question: What's the weather like where you currently are? (This is a pilot question to test audio and video)
Q2 How would you use this research opportunity for your best? (At this stage you will be given a specific scenario, like "There is a new market trend for sustainable energy and you need to find out more about that field and research potential companies for investment"
Q3 How will you collect your data, which approach would you use? Again, you are given more context through the text, and from that you have to adjust your answers to fit the situation best (I'd say emphasise that you would use multiple reliable sources, seek for guidance from colleagues or more experienced individuals)
Q4 How would you use this opportunity to build strong relationship with Taina, what questions would you ask? Here you are told you are working with an experienced colleague(Taina), and she has a lot of knowledge on this matter.
Q5 How would you approach this situation and how would you collect your data? Another scenario where your investor/client wants to invest in some similar "sustainable" companies and asks you to research similar companies on the market.
