I applied for the HSBC NY summer internship back on December 18, finished and passed my online assessment on Dec 30, but have not heard back from them since? Is the online assessment done after they screen interviews, or does everyone who apply get to do it? Thanks.

I got my invitation to complete the assessment the first workday after I submitted my application, so would assume everyone who applies takes the assessment (which has been the case with other places I have applied). Applications don't close until Jan. 14th
How long did it take for them to get back to you?
In the same boat as you, haven't heard back yet
I had first round recently but my application was way back in like early November.
Was this for the NYC office and is your school a target for the firm?
How do you know if you passed the online assessment or not?
I was wondering the same too and I took the test last week. I only had one online test, not two. This is for the NY office. Did people have two tests for the NY office?
I applied in late November.
I had the test that was part of the application and was emailed today to complete a different test, but it never stated if I passed or failed it.
Since it's been almost a week. Has anyone heard anything?
Hi Guys, I applied for Investment Banking Summer Analyst position at NY office on November 20 and got invitation for Online assessment on 8th December. I have cleared the online assessment but I am still waiting for the interview invitation. I have emailed all the recruiters responsible for hiring in IB division to know about application progress and still didn't get a single reply from them. Is anybody here in the same situation?
Same here. Applied for London SA position and did my online assessement back in early december. I keep getting bi-weekly automated messages that they've had a high level of interest for the programme which has delayed the response time. Emailed a recruiter back in late december and was told they won't have superday's until the new year. My online application status changed to "On hold-pending further review" a few weeks ago.
