I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at J.P. Morgan (London, England) in Oct 2023
Interview
Hirevue, they asked me behavioural questions and also the interview was quite heavy on financial market analysis, so i took use of the economist and the financial times etc. The US and UK economy was also crucial for me to study and i also used the financial highlights on the company's annual reports through 2008-2022 for my research
Being informed by HR to meet with the hiring manager directly, have to be wait a bit for the hiring manager. Then chat with the manager about yourself and how can you contribute to the company.
The initial screen was on Zoom. The interviewer asked about my skills within this role, my past experiences, and some technical questions. I was asked to rate my skills in different areas such as speaking, programming, and finance.
Before the interview, I made sure my resume was updated and I spent time on preparation and practice. I knew there would be questions about my background, skills, strengths, and weaknesses, so I tried to have clear answers ready. During the conversation I focused on confidence, good body language, and eye contact to make a strong first impression. I had researched the company, thought about my career goals, and tried to show a professional attitude. Afterward, I sent a follow-up email to thank them for the opportunity and ask for feedback.
