I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Standard Chartered Bank in Jun 2011
Interview
First of all, the candidates must pass the online tests which consisted of personality checking and reasoning test. After that they were asked to answer 3 essays regarding the current SCB situations and themselves.
Within 1 week, I got a phone call from HR at HK office scheduling for the phone interview appointment in the subsequent week. However I was dropped at this stage.
This phone call interview was about basic knowledge about the bank, why I applied to this position, followed by behavioural based questions which I needed to give them the example of what I did as per each question. I was not good because I had not prepared for this kind of question so I could not recall clearly and relevantly the experience I have regarding the question.
