Insight programmes
Our Insight Programmes are the first step to starting a career with HSBC.
They’ll give you an insight into our work environment and an introduction to the world of financial services as you begin to develop the skills you'll need for your professional career. You’ll have the opportunity to build your network, connecting with senior leaders, employee resource groups and our graduates. At the end of the programme, you'll be given the opportunity to apply to our Internship or Graduate Programmes for the following year. We are particularly interested in receiving applications from under-represented groups.
