      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC (Paris)

      Interview

      First interview is conducted by HR on the phone. Competency based questions solely, 30 minutes. Then she told me straight after the interview that I had passed and would be called for the assessment center if there were still vacancies available. Unfortunately there weren't anymore. I was redirected for a sales position but once again no luck, because all the positions were taken. So a bit frustrating.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why HSBC ? how do you see the economy in 50 years ? what should hsbc do in order to be prepared ? Tell me about a time you helped someone express his opinion
