I applied through college or university. I interviewed at HSBC (Singapore) in Mar 2022
Interview
First stage was hirevue that came alongside the application and second stage was a phone call from hr to get to know my preferences. The next day I had an interview with the line manager of my prefered team and the questions asked were quite general, around markets, fomc meetings, resolving conflict etc.
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)
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
Virtual interview. 3x 30 minute interiews for VAC. Variety of interviewers at each stage. Commercial awareness is present in the interview, so make so sure you understand and know current events.
