I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC
Interview
1. Soft skills: During the job interview, recruiters focused on communication, teamwork, and conflict resolution. Questions were about my experiences and how I handled difficult situations. 2. Technical interview: In the technical interview, I had to answer questions related to my field and solve a technical problem. This tested my knowledge and analytical skills. 3. Code challenge: I was given a coding task that required writing code within a limited time. The task allowed me to demonstrate practical coding abilities and problem-solving skills.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
System design, soft skills and deep language understanding.
It was okayish, not very difficult, They just take average interviews. Basic React and Java script questions only, They ask Limited and easy level leetcode DSA questions. It wont be that difficult to crack if you have your basics cleared in the first place.

I applied online. I interviewed at HSBC (Kraków) in Dec 2025
Interview
2 technical interviews (1 onsite + 1 online). Questions mostly about Java, Spring, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and REST APIs. Doing some pair programming for fixing a faulty API. They expressed their enthusiasm about my joining the team, but they suddenly ghosted me. After I sent some emails requesting clarification, they replied 2 months later, informing me that the role had been put on hold. Totally unprofessional.
