I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC (Toronto, ON)
Interview
Really long. After Selection, you answer 2 questions on a Hirevue, complete a job simulation on Hirevue, round with HR, round with two analysts/associates, and second round another interview (Director/VP)
The interviewers were unpleasant. They seemed stuck up and didn't want to be there. They reacted very well if you complimented them on their background, but would cut your answers to behavioral questions short to move on (answers were less than 2 mins) and after you'd answer they had very fake sounding responses. Asked a lot of arbitrary questions that tested if you checked the price of gold/crude that day.
