Accepted offer
Negative experience
Easy interview
Application
I applied in-person. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at HSBC (Calcuta)
Interview
Very Lengthy and clustered although very basic and easy. Unrealistic amount of time spent by HR and cringeworthy services by HR
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you wait for another month until joining? (Repeatedly for a few months, after hire but before getting a date of joining)
I applied online. I interviewed at HSBC (Indiana, PA) in Jan 2023
Interview
It was an easy process but offered a very low salary. They do not disclose about the salary until the final interview which is a red flag. They did not really test my skills, which they should have ideally.
Very lengthily, they took a couple of months to reply and after they did I did a series of interviews, some online some in person, I did a cognitive reasoning test as well as a character test. The interviewer was in his mid 30s and was straight forward and easy to understand and get along with. He was big on team culture so tended to talk about that the most instead of all other things.

Question 1
They asked about what steps I would take to incorporate myself into the team culture.
