Did anyone get the assessment yet? How long does it take to get it? Is it selective?
edit i see it
anyone taken the assessment?
I've taken it before. It is long. Did you get it?
yeah received and took the assessment, took me like an hour but wasn't too bad mostly behavior stuff and a bit of math
Anyone got the Job Simulation? It is the step after the initial untimed online assessment.
Yes just got it
Ok just got it as well.
.
Does it tell you if you passed the first unlimited time assessment? I just completed it
Nope
I take that back, we get the result report
Emailed or do you have to log into the portal again?
How long after applying do you get the assessment?
They sent me mine a week after applying. Then they just sent me the job simulation 12 days after submitting and passing the immersive online assessment.
thank you!
anyone know what the next step after job simulation / timing?
I was told by an associate that they are doing a couple of phone screenings and then superday within the next couple of weeks
Planning on doing mine this weekend, how is the job simulation thing? How can I prepare?
first round is this week
Could someone please share the exact link to HSBC application? Having trouble finding it.
Man oh man I messed up a question on the job simulation, good luck to the rest here!
what types of questions should I prepare for?
You don’t necessarily prepare for it lol It particularly took me about an hour to an hour and a half (I was double checking my answers like crazy) to complete, and it was quite daunting at times throughout. There were 5 sections each with about 5-10 questions and 2 of those sections required math/problem solving. The other 3 did not and only required you to rank 5 statements regarding how you’d respond to a given situation for each question in those sections.
For the math/problem solving, realize that you’re going to have to do some problem solving with the data and information given to you! For example, they may ask a question that requires you to think outside of the box a bit and combine multiple chunks of data to eventually reach your answer. I don’t have any specific examples bc I just simply don’t remember, but you should be fine as long as you really put in the time during that hour or so to perform calculations and thoroughly analyze what the question is actually asking. It’ll feel like completing a long a** assignment, but you need to keep a positive mindset through it all bc you don’t want to lose motivation halfway through and allow that to distract you, potentially impacting your performance.
Good luck tho, you’ll (most likely) do fine! There’s also no time limit, so you over-thinkers (guilty, as charged) have all the time you can wish for to reread your responses at least 15 times over because apparently the last 14 times just weren’t enough.
Crossing my fingers that I did well🤞
Just received the job simulation. Submitted SJT on Monday night and just got the email today (Thursday night).
Lmao just did the first 2 videos and fucked up the 2nd question. I don’t even want to complete the rest anymore bc I’m just pissed now, ugh. I made a clear mistake
by first 2 videos, do you mean we have to record an answer of ourselves like hirevues?
What kind of video questions were there ? I have mine rn and I’m j nervous :(
Anyone know when second rounds come out? Thank you.
You’ve had a first round already?!
From a non target so the process might've been different for me.
They had a first-round this week. Superday come out like in a week or two
Anyone applied to AM? Just finished Job Simulation and wonder about the timeline.
Are we allowed to apply to more than one program?
Only one program.
Anyone know about updates for the Corporate Banking one
Was the Online Immersive Assessment part of the initial application? Or was it sent to you guys afterwards
Sent a few weeks after initial assessment.
anyone have or get a notification for a second round yet? I have not.
Wish I had some insight. I'm still waiting for a first round; how long ago was yours?
2 weeks ago
any word on 2021 private banking internship? I submitted job simulation during the last week of september and haven't heard anything since then.
Got an email saying I moved past the assessment round and my application is under further consideration. Anyone else get this?
Received a similar email this am. I've been going through the process for almost 2 months now.
Is this for IB NY?
i also got this email
Got this too this morning, wonder if this means we are going to get first rounds sometime over the next couple weeks.
probably means a phone screen coming up
How many rounds of interviews are there?
I've been going through the first round, and I have a second interview coming up. I assume this one will determine whether or not I go to superday.
Is this for IB?
does anybody have any suggestions for researching transactions for HSBC Securities US (Basically any NY office banking deals)? I can't find any info on any of their millions of different websites, and their PitchBook profile doesn't have an incredible amount of stuff to go on either. There def are some deals I could choose to research on pitch book, but I'm wondering if anybody knows of a better resource for that particular office (or any US office honestly)
I've looked for so long for any M&A activity... can't find anything. Not a good sign but I'm desperate for any offer lol
they dont lead deals too often

Anyone else finish the 2 assessments and get this email? What does this mean?
Got this a few weeks back on the 13th similar to others in this thread. Haven't heard anything further yet though. Might reach out to my recruiting contact to see if they have a timeline
when have you done the job sim?
I think I did the Job Simulation like October 19th or 20th, and got the email on the 23rd.
How many rounds does hsbc have for the internship?
.
By 6 emails, are you including the confirmation that you've passed the assessment along with things like confirming you completed the assessment and survey requests?
I had one first round, 2 second rounds, and superday
Are you from a specific target school/did you get accelerated? Just trying to determine if i'm still being considered for NY IB. Thanks
Wow, so to get the internship, u have to pass 2 tests , and 3 rounds of interviews? that is crazzzzy
Has anyone who had a first round been informed that they have been rejected even after they were informed they met the minimum standards for the assesments?
I read its one first round behavioral then straight to superday which consists of 5 interviews?
Anyone applying for Markets hear about 1st round? Got the usual you passed the benchmarks email, but haven't heard past that.
Had a first round interview around 2 weeks ago, I think they are organizing superdays now
I'm not sure if they're going to do another superday, but there was one this past friday for Markets summer 2021
Did you take part in the markets superday?
fartday
Has anybody got invite for NY-IB superday planned for later this week? Had 2nd round late last week and wondering if I've been dinged since I haven't heard back yet
How long was the 2nd interview and was it technical?
I got the invitation today
Invitation for super day?
For those who received the offer, whats the comp?

Are they still giving out interviews? Finished my assessments last week

Just had a superday so i think hiring is still happening
Omg Congrats! That's great to hear!
Do you mind sharing how long it took to hear back from the second assessment?
have decisions been finalized? I applied pretty late(around mid-October) and was notified that I passed the assessment about a week ago. Have to make decisions soon about next summer so just wondering if I still have any chance.
bump! Just received feedback on the second assessment today.
Wondering if they are still filling their spots for next summer.
Hr said they are still recruiting
Does anyone have information regarding London? I did both assessments like a month ago and no further contact yet.
got an email for AC today
I got an email saying they’re done recruiting for sales and trading but I can be considered for another role
does anyone know anything about the corporate banking role? i did the job simulation a few days ago but haven't heard back yet
They usually get back in a week or so. You should be fine
What was the job simulation like?
I just got an email saying that the positions for corporate banking were all filled. This was less than a week after getting an email saying I passed the job sim.
