      Quantitative Analyst Interview

      4 May 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC (London, England) in Apr 2023

      Interview

      The interview process took a few weeks. It consisted of completing a questionnaire about salary expectations and general information, which only aimed to eliminate candidates if they didn't align with the company's expectations. If you answered well, they would invite you to participate in a pre-recorded video interview where they asked three simple questions, and you had all the time you needed to prepare your responses. It was basically impossible to answer incorrectly. In my opinion, only after that did they review your CV and assess your skills, and they likely eliminated the majority of candidates at this stage. However, I didn't manage to pass this step, so I'll never know for sure. When I asked for an explanation or feedback, they informed me that they were unable to provide individual feedback at this stage due to the high number of applicants, which was quite disappointing.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1) "What is your level of C++" 2) "Let’s assume you are struggling to solve a problem on your own, how do you manage his resolution?" 3) Whenever it is possible, HSBC support a flexible working model. Do you have any specific working pattern requirements we need to be aware of?
