I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at HSBC in Mar 2012
Interview
General interview with Human Resources, followed by interview with the Area including direct boss and other senior managers of the area. Got interviewed by senior management of other two areas related to Analysis. There is also two on line tests, which are very easy and test mental ability and basic math understanding. Also got a case study during the interview.
There are four rounds from personality to intro, case and final round, not particularly tricky but to test the thinking. Very quick process if you are able to make the time
