Hi Intern in Other, just trying to help:
More suggestions...
You're welcome.
Has anyone received a Superday invitation yet?
Do people at HSBC network? From what I've been seeing, no one is open to networking.....
that's inaccurate
Can you elaborate....
Anyone take an assessment for them? I have yet to receive it...
Applied for Markets. Have had 2 assessments so far (one all culture, one with some video). Anyone else have updates?
Same except I applied to IB
Do you know if these are somewhat selective or just sent to all?
how long did it take you to get the assessments?
Applied 8/17, Assessment 1 8/25, Assessment 2 9/8
I think somewhere else somebody mentioned nothing to prepare for, you'll do fine. I'll second that.
have markets first round next week
Is this one of the online assessment ones?
no passed the virtual ones, its a phone call. Did the assessments a week or 2 before
Have you heard back after your first round?
Anyone with first round for corporate banking or banking overall?
Got first round for corp banking for tuesday, hella nervous
which office did you apply for?
dont be bro, had mine today and wasnt even an interview just a basic conversation that lasted 20 min, just checking to see if you have an actual interest
Got this message a little over a week ago, curious if anyone can tell me what this means.
"We are pleased to confirm that you have successfully met the minimum benchmarks for the selection processes that you have completed so far. Your application will now be reviewed in more detail and we will advise you as soon as possible if you are invited to the next stage of the application process."
think it means they are taking a deeper look at your job simulator assessment to possibly give you a phone screen
I got the same thing also
when did u receive this after completing the second video interview?
i just got this message too. how long did it take for them to get back to you about the phone interview after you received this email?
Never got another message since that
has anybody done their first round for IB NY already that would be willing to share their experience? I scheduled mine for this week and would be interested in hearing what to expect
As well, any insight would be awesome
I had three first-round phone screens which were more of a chance to get to know people in different groups. Got hammered with technicals on the last one which I failed miserably at but was extended a Superday.
when is your upcoming superday?
Anyone hear about Corporate banking superday yet? had first round 2 weeks ago
Did the first round like two weeks ago as well. Have not heard back, don't know if this is a good or bad sign. On one hand it could mean they've already dinged people they don't want, on the other it could mean we are not priorities for progression. But idk, I'm the kind of guy that worries a whole lot.
I heard back yesterday that I got superday
Has anybody received any offers for IB in NY ? I had my superday last week
Yes, they send out offers to some
Does anyone have any idea what to expect for the corporate banking SA or FT superdays? I have tried searching online and came up with Jack SHIT
gonna bump this just in case
bump superday is 3.5 hours
have u been able to come up with any information i actually dont know what to expect
On what we should expect in terms of the structure, I am not too sure as well but I am brushing up on my technicals since I am sure I'll ace the behavioral. They did say we will start off with 3 tasks that we would be assessed on and I am very worried about that part as I fucked up the last case study I did with an energy trading company for their SA position so bad the associates stopped the interview all together. It isn't hard just confusing. However.....
The technicals I have focused on is basic stuff like:
1. What is a bridge loan, revolver loan, bullet loan, term loan A,B & C (i think would be important)
2. What to look out for when assessing whether or not to borrow money to a firm -----> The 5 Cs of credit, 3 accounting ratios
3. EBITDA vs Net Income (very important to understand in the grand scheme of things)
4. What is terminal value explained in detail
5. $10 Change in depreciation in the 3 financial statements, $10 Change in Account Receivable or Account Payable in the 3 financial statements
I am an accounting major and have had an ER internship before so i expect they would want to go even deeper than these which is what I am shook about.
Please let me know what technicals you are looking at or if you think I am missing something important
anyone interviewing for levfin and if so what round are you on
I had 2nd round on friday and have yet to hear back but thought it went pretty well.
does anyone know anything about the corporate banking role? i did the job simulation a few days ago but haven't heard back yet
did you ever hear back? i did the job simulation two days ago and got an email saying that I met the benchmark and will have my application reviewed more closely.
I just received email about reaching benchmark for job simulator. could anyone share their experience about how the process goes after this?
After this they’ll usually reach out for superday
