I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at HSBC (Chennai) in Dec 2021
Interview
There were three rounds (each being a knock-out/eliminatory one). First round was Group discussion. Second round being a technical round containing few mathematical puzzles and a task of building strategies given a financial situation. Last round is as usual the HR round.

Technical & Managerial Rounds: 1-on-1 or panel interviews with line managers or Managing Directors. These heavily test my financial acumen and industry knowledge.
