It is taking very long time for my application too. I interviewed on 16/1 and just like most of u, they only took resume from me. Then I got called 1 month later asking for documents to be emailed to them, an application form to be filled in excel file n send in as softcopy(this is something I really hate because of the formating) and some other documents to be scanned to them for background checking. I m chasing them week after week with emails n it finally tells me about my credit check does not go thru because of debt to digi last week. So, I paid the entire debt n scanned the release letter back to hr. It has been 2months until now, currently I still don get to know whether my application is successful.

I have to say, quite a big bullshxt ure talking. I dont believe i know somebody in GC HK Setts is famous. Since i most probably know ur boss & his boss & his boss

well yeah. the same news.

hiring still freeze.

bonus and increment still given. got it. waiting for end march

but next year, should be much lesser. as next year pool was given to us this year for increment.

Yea 2015 still got bonus and increment according to my mgr. This at least can motivated a bit to the staff lol.
My dept no yearly bonus one (we have quarterly pay out), so they just concerned that 2016 increment might be really little or none
Coz its really depends on the bank's performance etc but with the current market is hard to say

Yup. Bonus is weak this year..but mine still reach 5 digits and increment 2 digits.

But couldnt remember which floor coz its too long ago.

May I know when u will start to work? This is because hsbc told me that the next intake for financial crime compliance will be on May.

I'll start on 24 march.. but i've attended the iv on january, the result was on 8 march, it takes for about 2 months to wait for the result... my friend will start on 28 april for the same position.. u can call hr for your status...

UK payment process??

I tried to call the hr continuously for two weeks but couldn't get through. I'm worrying something wrong with my background checking.

I believe this is bank position and not GLTM right?
