I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at J.P. Morgan (London, England) in Oct 2017
Interview
3 interviews in the morning for everyone, each one with a different desk. 20 minute short behavioural questionnaire to fill out before the interviews that was used during two of the three interviews. Mostly competency questions with some technical questions as well. Some people got sent home at lunch time. Anyone who stayed after lunch had between 2 and 10 more interviews with various members of various desks.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Name four skills that you think make a good trader and why you think you have those skills
30 minute interview each with 3 different people (mostly associates, VPs). They were mostly behavioural and some motivational and little technicals. Some questions were repeated by different interviewers and they basically want to cover as many questions as possible by ticking criterion boxes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you worked in a group, a challenge that came up and how did you overcome it?
If you pass the video interview, you will get invited to the Superday, which consists of three 1 to 1 individual interviews. Mostly behaviour and resume-related questions. Positive experience overall.
First hirevue, then went straight to Superday, had 3 interviews of 30 min each, different types of technicals mixed with behaviorals. Technicals ranged from current market questions to general finance knowledge to brain teasers.
