I am looking for an associate, project finance position in a bank. I have 5 years of experience working at HSBC but not in HSBC US. Even though I have applied for many roles, did not secure any interview yet. I understand without referral it's not possible. However, it seems like system referrals don't work as well. :( can anyone help/suggest a better way?

Hi
Thanks. Somehow I can't log into that profile anymore. So posted again. I am currently in the US.

Even with a referral jobs are hard to get right now OP so there is no guarantee that would help you get your foot in the door sadly. The best I can recommend is to keep applying and networking. Jobs are really hard to come by right now and its just a really tough job market.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.
