I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at HSBC (Shanghai, Shanghai) in Jan 2024
Interview
HR is really friendly and nice. She introduces the interview process and employee benefits really clearly. But the interview process is way too long. It takes my 5 months from first interview to enrollment.
Fine - very standard. My first interview with the hiring manager however, I was given less than 1 business day notice and no times to choose from, which made it very tricky for me to make time to find a quiet place to take the call during the work day.
1) 30 min call with recruiter, 2) 1 hour competency interview with hiring manager and peer, 3) 1 hour task interview, 4) 1 hour interview with the team, 5) 30 min interview with Head of

Interview
