HSBC Graduate Programme

Has anyone ever went through the HSBC Graduate Programme process? I applied to the CMB Graduate Programme I believe it was called and get a new email each day with a reasoning test attached to it. There's never really much "what to expect from here" other than "you have now completed your xyz reasoning test." From what I know of other graduate programs this seems to be one of the more lengthy ones from my initial assessment of it. I'm definitely interested, but have final interviews at other places so I really wish they would at least let me know when to expect say a phone interview. Any info would be helpful. I've googled the subject a lot and everyone seems to be all over the place with their answers.
