The interview was with 2 people. They didn't seem ready to provide additional training and wanted someone who could jump straight into the work. The interview was more a test of knowledge and React concepts than a test of aptitude. Considering the role was 5 days in the office, I don't think I'd thrive in the environment the interviewers provided.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at J.P. Morgan in Jan 2023
Interview
1. Hackerank Test : 2 leetcode medium
2. Technical Round - Remember anything and everything about Java in general. Databases were created so that no one has to through ledger records every time they want to get any info, but I guess JPMC employees aren’t aware of stackoverflow/Google and expect precise answers to anything about Java. Pretty dumb I would say not using your brain to build intelligent systems rather filling it up with Java knowledge. Glad I wasn’t eligible for the next round. Best of luck to them to find the employees who have mugged up the entire Java book.
Two Leetcode Medium questions : they don’t expect to run the code but discuss your approach and edge cases which I think I did decent and came to the most optimal solution.
3. The 2nd Technical round which was scheduled was cancelled.
