The process was a total of four rounds.

1. Online Test (Technical + Aptitude + Verbal)
2. Online Coding Test
3. Technical Interview
4. HR Interview

The 1st round consisted of 5 sections: Verbal, Maths, Logical Reasoning, Data Structures, and Basic Computer Fundamentals.

The 2nd round comprised 2 programming challenges to be solved in 30 minutes. Both questions were very easy. I managed to solve both in 10 minutes.

The 3rd round was the real tough round. It was a long Technical PI of approximately 1 hour 45 minutes. They asked for my area of interest and questions accordingly. They asked mainly from Java, Data Structures, some tricky questions to check mental capability, and about some latest technologies in the market.

The 4th and last round was the HR round. HSBC conducted it quite properly. I was asked about my family background and studies, if I had to change something in this world what it would be, a startup idea, etc. The most interesting question was to give feedback on the placement process, specifically in brutal words.
