Typical interview loop

How HSBC usually runs it for applied AI and LLM engineer roles.

  1. Application and shortlist

    Focus: CV match to role

    You submit a CV, Talent Acquisition reviews it, the hiring manager may also look, and shortlisted candidates move forward.

  2. Online assessments

    Focus: Role skills, workplace fit

    Shortlisted candidates complete online assessments within a set number of days, and the number and type depend on the role.

  3. On-demand video interview (some roles)

    Focus: Communication, motivation

    Some roles include a recorded video interview where you answer set questions on camera with no live interviewer.

  4. Technical interview

    Focus: Projects, CS fundamentals

    Candidates describe a technical interview built around their resume that covers projects, tech stack, problems solved and core programming concepts.

  5. Team interviews

    Focus: Role examples, strengths

    Most processes include two to four conversations of up to an hour with future teammates, where you give role-related examples and explain how you'd handle the job's main challenges.

  6. Decision, offer and screening

    Focus: Offer, background checks

    HSBC tells you its decision by email or phone, sends an offer, and then runs background and local regulatory checks.
