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?

- 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.

Behavioral Preparation:

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

- Focus on articulating your thought process clearly while solving problems.

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 Questions:

Fog of trade war hangs over economy, but the Fed still has to make a forecast. Here’s what it’s faces. - MarketWatch

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

- Reflect on your past experiences, focusing on key projects, challenges, and successes that demonstrate your skills and fit for the role.

Company Research:

Why cant school buses ditch kids who are late to the bus at the school? Like on the way home, if a kid is late when all the others arrived to the bus on time, why cant they leave the late kid behind since its not fair to the on time kids to wait?

Preparation Tips

Be confident, stay calm, and remember to ask questions at the end of the interview to show your interest in the role and company. Good luck!

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

Can you share something that captivates you, whether it's an idea, a discovery, or an invention?

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

Final Thoughts

Behavioral Questions:

How many trans people are lawful gun owners?

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

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

Review Technical Concepts:

Has anyone experienced an out of the body experience, as a child, years before you had ever heard the term or understood the implications?

- 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).

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

Types of Questions

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

Technical Setup:

Why are flat Earthers made fun of when they seemingly don't exist? I have only met one flat Earther in 18 years.

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

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