QUOTE(eddie2020 @ Aug 28 2014, 08:23 PM) not sure, usually should be after accessment then interview with team manager and your future probably line manager.. How long before phone interview then? LOLif no i think the chance is almost zero i guess.. hdpm is on cyber n kl as well.. during interview should be in cyber and induction... then after that you back to either kl or cyber.. last time spm go through, i think now only diploma or degree i guess.. most of my batch is degree... those spm ady is old folks inside.. same age or younger than me but ady few year experience, when i counted back its like they enter during 18-22 which is possible spm/stpm/diploma era.. after phone interview, within 1 week will ask you go cyber interview,, after that, 1-3day for my case n most of the candidate.. Not interview at KL meh? I saw some people said the interview was done in KL? I applied using my diploma, since I'm taking professional cert for my degree and it's not completed yet. Hopefully they accept |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 10:13 AM) Does it really matters if there's gym or not?You go to work, high chance no time to enter the gym one la. QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 10:15 AM) Anyone have any idea what the basic for this is usually like, I saw that some people said its rm2000, but that was back in 2009, its quite low for a bank isn't it ? Or do they try to keep performance up by giving lower basic and bigger bonus? From a friend who's been working there for almost two years, basic is around 2,5~2k depending on what you were offered.Increment is terrible ( 10~15% probably ) and bonus = 1 month~1,5 months only probably. And oh, HDPM is a subsidiary of HSBC, thus you don't get all the perks of working in a bank. You get the preferred rates, not the staff rates if you were to take loans and etc from HSBC anyways. This is a pretty decent start up job, to be honest. ( I'm talking bout Global Banking and Market exec, the rest not really sure. Limited career growth for sure, so bandwagon hopping would be expected. ) |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 11:53 AM) I could explain in detail but it's safe to assume, it's not data entry role.You'll still need to use your brains a little. QUOTE(Charlenelee1 @ Aug 29 2014, 12:28 PM) Hi everyone. Just wait a little. They'll get back to you as soon as possible.I went for the interview on 15th aug, after the interview the manager gv me his phone number and asked me to call him if I really interested in the job. So on 18th aug, when I called him, he said he will pass my doc to hr. Ytd I received a call but din managed to pick up. when I googled it is from hdpm, so today I called to hdpm, the ppl in hr said it is from Manila, I have to wait for them to call me back. They said they can't check my application status. Is it? Coz when I read thru all the posts here, most of them get to check their status with the hr.. Speaking of which, I got my phone interview out of a sudden today |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 04:54 PM) It would seem that my statement had touch you wrongly, it was not my intention, the description use was probably incorrect, IB analyst? I doubt they teach any of those skills at HDPM.What I meant to say ask was if the job scope involve mainly data entry, because form the job scope description is say things like, -Investigation, resolution and ownership of all issue relating to the process -To acquire a broad and detailed understanding of markets products and processes. -Day to day processing & support of the business in on of the product of functional streams. There was no mention about data entry work, however after reading many replies on this thread is seems that it might be so (or I might be mistaken, if so someone please correct me). And if there is, how much of your time is spend on it ? To develop ones career it is important to take into account what your day to day duties is, as what you do everyday will be an indication of your skill set to the next employer. Also, regarding "career development" part in your reply, what do you see as the development path in this company, how transferable are the skills to other divisions of the Banking Industry ? For example, is it possible to be a IB analyst from this role ? Sorry brah, if that's the career pathway you are looking for, this ain't the right place for you. You're working for back end bank job, don't expect to learn much about analyst of stocks and etc. QUOTE(Charlenelee1 @ Aug 29 2014, 04:59 PM) Yea.. Have to be sabar I guess.. But I'm wondering why the hr said the number I received is from manila since it is started with 03.. I tot it is a malaysia number? :/ The call can be routed from manila via their call center at KL?Anyway, congratz Well, it was quite fun. She seems pretty interested to hear what I want to crap out And I'll probably get the answer on monday on what else to do to qualify for the job ( Formal interview and etc gua ) |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 06:28 PM) In your opinion what can one learn in HDPM and how transferable are the skills gained ? Btw are you in such role ? How long already ? Looking ahead 10 years, and not to say that 10 years later anyone will still be in HDPM, it is good to know it the skills learnt would be able to lead down a path (future jobs/career) which would enable us to be able to support our own families on an average living cost. However if such thing is not possible then it would be a waste of time to be in such role. What do you think ? Apparently, I know a lot of people working under such role. I'm not in this industry myself. I'm just finding for a job that's offering me odd working hours so that I could focus my energy in doing things that I like for the time being. 10 years from now, it's what you'll make for yourself. If you want to be lazy, you'll still end up being lazy at somewhere. QUOTE(party @ Aug 29 2014, 07:34 PM) I think I have to agree with your opinion on this one.Just very different perspective that we are looking from. |

QUOTE(party @ Aug 29 2014, 07:42 PM) Haha..I agree with you. Different perspective same conclusion. That's why I was curious when he was asking so much unrelated question regarding the job at hand.If a person is lazy even if I let you be IB analyst and open hod vacancy also no use cause you won't be learning anything and fail to do it. If one knows where to go, there's no reason to worry bout non-transferable skills in one industry to another...... |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 07:57 PM) Hi, well IB analyst was just an example, it is very possible that some people may just want to work here for sometime then decide what to do with their life later or maybe plan to be entrepreneur in the future, to each his own. What I mean was that you never know where you will be 10 years later, but it there is a good chance it will be from the decision and skills which you acquire today. Since you want to stick to real life example....And just to give an example regarding the comment on being lazy, even the hardest working chef cannot become a fashion designer as the skill set from his previous role is just too different. You can be the best of the best but it does not change the fact that you are your skill set, and your career path will depend on that to a high extent. And yes maybe we are looking from a different perspective Maybe a good rephrase of the original question would be. -What skill does one take away from the job in HDPM -Where have ex-HDPM staff gone and expand their career I know an electrical engineer who's damn good in his job, and holder of 3 patents in some designs who quit his 5 figure job just to be a assistant chef in Australia. Difficult? Yes. Impossible? Nah. Which is what we mentioned many times earlier above, life is as what you make of it. But to answer your question, since you want to be specific. 1. You'll get to learn about back end bank work. Risk management, reconciliation, margin calls and etc. 2. Nobody knows. Some stayed in HDPM while others may move to more better paying job such as Citibank CS or etc. Again, depending on what a person whats to achieve in his life? HDPM will give you a decent kick start in your career, being able to work and understand the market and internal mechanism of the global market. How you make of it, that's another story? |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 29 2014, 07:59 PM) A job that offering you odd working hours ? I am used to sleeping 3~4 hours a day and function at 110% efficiency for the next day.What are you doing now by the way I'm currently still busy pursuing another 2 qualifications at my leisure and being able to come to work at 4 pm would be very good, since I could spend the bulk of my day effectively doing something else before work and sleep. |

I got a call within 1 day =.=haha i only pass the gym without entering it.. bonus only 1month - 1.5 month? cz i heard some of my friend said bonus is attractive cz this company operate low cost n not much benefit for us, hence they offer better bonus QUOTE(party @ Aug 29 2014, 09:35 PM) Thats quite stupid example he provided actually. Let him be? He want a skillset that can suit any jobs I guess. Like that no job will ever suit him. I mean, you think skills you acquire from being engineer can be doctor anot? P.S: This is aside from managing skills. Anyways, I am impressed by the efficiency of HSBC Based on the email they sent me, looks like they ain't gonna hire me Not that I'm under qualified. Guess it's time for me not to spam this thread d |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Aug 30 2014, 04:19 PM) Yes, there is a chance they will call you on Monday or send you an email, I'll just wait for their call on Monday then la.Did you ask for verbal confirmation ? The HR I contacted gave verbal confirmation that they will send the interview email when I ask. And they did eventually. No need waste time and energy to bother till then It's just an entry level job, plenty of others available too. QUOTE(dontcallmeback @ Aug 30 2014, 06:28 PM) I bet you read from the previous threads about this glorified data entry title. I agree to certain extent. I think most people already mentioned it.Most of the works here are pretty straight-forward, but you can take the initiative to do something more isnt it? There are people who chose to settle at the same positions for many years, and there are those who take initiative to participate actively and leverage and innovate the process or work environment. It is just up to what you want to be. There is no best job, but only the job that fits you most. Life's what you make outta it. Same goes with the job at HSBC? |

QUOTE(party @ Oct 1 2014, 12:42 PM) Not really. Err, I don't see how it's related to a job at HSBC?He may have a record in CCRIS, CTOS or resume problems. No offense but I think employee's personal credit scores are supposed to be personal. Unless he has an arrest warrant outstanding or substance abuse records, that's a totally different story then la. QUOTE(jorgsacul @ Oct 1 2014, 01:23 PM) someone not honest...it could be financially whereby a lot of late payment & etc. As I mentioned above, financial reasons are quite ridiculous as it's not related to his job performance + it's his own business.Also could be employment gap not clearly stated or reason leaving old job As for employment gap or reason for leaving old job, that's a different story altogether. Unless he's terminated from his previous position or did not account truthfully for the gap, that's a big difference maker lol. |

QUOTE(jorgsacul @ Oct 1 2014, 02:31 PM) It has strong correlation. If you see all employees that have problems such as stealing, late coming, MIA & etc.....all have bad credit reporting due personal issues such as financial. Can honestly tell you from my friend's exp working at HDPM, a lot of people who don't have credit rating issues are always late, MIA or incapable to perform their task to the letter as well. So unless it's backed by statistics, I would say that it's still a little ridiculous, esp when the job being offered is just for a basic entry level job. No offense of course. |

QUOTE(djay16 @ Oct 1 2014, 08:07 PM) hm, anyone who have been in HDPM for 5 years plus ? I'll be honest with you. I doubt anyone here would've been working for more than 5 years unless they started in a higher position initially.there is a lot of info on entry level salary but what about the avg salary of those who have been there for 5 years, and are those individuals senior/assistant manager/manager etc, anyone been there 5 years without promotion beyond senior (i do think that in most places senior means you have been there long but the work is still the same as newbie) 2 years in global exec would only yield a 10-15% salary increase per annum. You're probably not qualified for the Salary revision during your 1st year unless you enter during March/April when there's a salary revision / bonus payout. A friend working as a level 7 position ( 8 being the lowest ) is probably earning around 3k-ish nett. Salary's a touchy subject for most ppl anyways. |
