Recently, I cleared my JP Morgan coding round. Next, I received mail for a video interview. What kind of questions are asked in this round? How do I prepare myself?

- Familiarize yourself with JP Morgan’s values, recent news, and their technology initiatives. This will help you tailor your answers and show genuine interest.

- Problem-Solving: Situational questions that assess how you approach challenges, make decisions, and learn from failures.

Technical Questions:

What is the sum of X+XX+XXX+XXXX?

- Teamwork and Collaboration: Questions about past experiences working in teams, resolving conflicts, or contributing to group projects.

- Understand common design patterns and principles if system design questions are likely.

- Brush up on key data structures and algorithms. Use platforms like LeetCode, HackerRank, or CodeSignal to practice coding problems.

The world of the Harry Potter series is usually considered bad worldbuilding. What are some examples of actually good worldbuilding in the books/movies?

- System Design: For more senior positions, you might face questions on designing systems or explaining the architecture of applications.

Behavioral Preparation:

- Prepare for the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure your responses to behavioral questions.

What are some common historical misconceptions?

- Coding Challenges: You may be asked to code live during the interview using a shared document or coding platform. Be prepared to explain your thought process and approach.

Congratulations on clearing the coding round! For a video interview with JP Morgan, you can expect a mix of technical and behavioral questions. Here’s a breakdown of what to anticipate and how to prepare:

Technical Setup:

Gun owners, imagine if an attacker comes to your home and takes your gun to use against you before you had the chance to pick it up. Would you regret owning a gun?

- Data Structures and Algorithms: You may be asked to solve problems related to arrays, strings, linked lists, trees, graphs, and algorithms (sorting, searching, dynamic programming).

- Conduct mock interviews with friends or use platforms like Pramp or Interviewing.io to simulate the interview experience.

Company Research:

Has anyone who has been a victim of a narcissist made contact with the other victims of the narcissist? Did it help to confirm what you suspected about the narcissists?

Mock Interviews:

- Ensure your technology works (camera, microphone, internet connection) and choose a quiet, well-lit space for the interview.

Review Technical Concepts:

Why is the band Nickelback unliked so much?

Final Thoughts

- Motivation and Interest: Why you want to work at JP Morgan, your understanding of the company culture, and how your goals align with theirs.
