I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at J.P. Morgan (Bournemouth, England) in Mar 2015
Interview
We were taken to a house next to the office. The atmosphere was very warm and it seemed that they tried to reduce the stress as much as possible. The interview itself had 4 stages.
You are given 3 problems to solve in 45 mins. In pseudocode or code etc. I didn't find them challenging, yet the time limit is quite small.
2nd stage is 1 on 1 discussion with and interviewer about your answers and design choices. Also general discussion about technologies.
3rd stage is competency interview. I found this one to be the hardest one, as it felt like interviewer was looking directly into my soul. Read through the website of JP morgan and their projects. It's gonna go a long way
4th stage - group activity. 10 minutes to prepare 30 mins to do the task given. Hint: Track the time remember the names of your colleagues and include them in the conversation.
Overall - very awesome experience.
Interviewed with VP two weeks ago, after that no response from the recruiter about the interview or next steps still following up with the recruiter no response. At least I am expecting to get a response about the interview update.
Got contacted by an hr through LinkedIn and had a call the next day, was assured that a hiring manager would contact me soon to set up an interview. Got a response from them 2 weeks later, set up an interview with the developers. Ghosted after it.
“Did the J.P. Morgan online assessment—no live interview. It was mostly logic and problem-solving questions, not typical leetcode stuff. Fairly tricky, but instructions were clear and the timing felt reasonable
