Behavioral Technical

JP Morgan HireVue is a timed, one-way video interview. It's usually the first screening. You'll record answers to behavioral and sometimes technical questions. You'll have limited time to prep (like 30-120 seconds) and only a couple of tries (often one re-try) to answer each question within a set time limit (like 90-120 seconds).

Behavioral

The interview process for this back office internship didn't include technical questions. It focused mostly on motivational and situational questions. They really want to know if you're a good cultural fit, so make sure you understand the role and job description you're applying for. This might be different for other internships, though.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Could you introduce yourself and explain your interest in JP Morgan?

Technical Behavioral

There were multiple rounds to this interview process. It started with a written test. Following that, I had in-person interviews where I was asked technical questions about markets, business analysis, and accounting. They also asked some questions about my fit for the role, like why I'm interested in equity research, my interest in stocks, and my future plans.

Confirmed questions6 questions
  • What are your thoughts on markets?
  • Can you do a business analysis?
  • Can you explain accounting?
