Did you do the Job Simulation already? or just the Online Immersive Assessment?
Online Immersive Assessment, what about you? What's the Job Simulation like?
I just did Online Immersive Assessment. I guess HK is still reviewing applications and has not sent out Job Simulation invite? Or other candidates please comment your progress.
It seems like no one has yet to do the Job simulation for IBD Summer? I wonder if it is safe to assume that they are still shooting the video......
Unrelated, but what are people's thoughts on HSBC HK IBD if I ultimately want to be in NYC full-time?
I have received the job simulation for global markets.
Ive received job simulator as well. Anyone taken it yet? They have an odd process, just have a darn phone call with someone.
GDHead, is this IB or Markets?
It is listed as Global Banking & Markets Global Banking - Investment Banking summer internship. I go to take the online job simulator but it tells me i cannot access it.
I heard Global Banking does not have Job Simulation and the next step after Online Immersive is phone interview.
Anyone got phone interview for Global Banking? FT/SA/Off Cycle? Thanks.
I applied to classic IB and I completed the OIA almost a month ago and was told I met the benchmark. But no news so far :(
I've seen Job Simulator invites for Markets, AM, CMB, everything...I even know the first ACs for AM and GPB are next week. Should I assume I got dinged already?
I don't think anyone has heard back from Global Banking yet. Can anyone else confirm?
when is HSBC's application ddl? why I marked down 11/19?
I applied to the Global markets department and have got an invitation to the final round.
HK office? May I know when did you hand in the job simulation test?
To Assessment Center? Full time?
Yes to Assesment Center. It's for the summer internship.
I finished the job simulation test 2 weeks ago.
For Global Banking or markets? Have you progressed further
It's for Global Markets. I got an invitation to assessment centre in Hong Kong, however, I declined the invitation as I have already accepted an offer with a bulge bracket.
Hey, congratulations for your offer with Bulge Bracket. Would you mind sharing your experience of job simulation test for HSBC please? I would be ever so grateful for your help!
what is in the job simulation test? I have no clue of what it is
Heard back for Classic IBD, HK for a phone interview. So seems that for this division there is no job simulation, just phone interview like how they used to do it.
I received a survey request at HKT midnight, a week later than my submission. Does it mean they have finished reviewing my video?
Is job simulation similar to phone interview but recorded as videos?
Could anyone give us more details about the job simulation of HSBC (how long, how many questions, what kind of questions) please ?
Can someone please tell me along what lines they were asked in the online Job Simulation? I have applied for Sales Division, so I am not sure if it's the same for IBD and Sales
Hey did you complete the job simulation? Please could you share some example Qs? what was the format like and how did it all go?
Thanks :)
Invite for HK IBD summer superday (or AC as they call it) has been sent out, anyone got it too?
May I ask when did you receive it?
Generally do you need to be bilingual / duel citizen to work in HK?
As far as I know, the SA IBD intern recruitment process is almost done for HSBC.
Shouldn't there be at least 4 more ACs coming up?
got my offer last month. it's for HK office. Not sure about UK.
You mean for HongKong or London office as well?
dear god i didn't receive the phone interview or superday invitation.
I did, they scheduled a call with me for today
