The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at J.P. Morgan in Feb 2009
Interview
JPMorgan Chase posted the availability of a Private Banking Summer Analyst position on my university's career site. I applied and subsequently received an e-mail instructing me to sign up through the career site. The interview was brief. Two interviewers took turns asking questions. The questions were standard interview questions that drew basis from my resume. As I did not have substantial work or internship experience in the financial sector relative to my peers, I did not think I had a competitive advantage. I would advise other interview candidates applying to JPMorgan or any other Wall Street firm to spend time and effort to understand 1) the position and its responsibilities 2) the department and its related departments 3) the firm and its competitors.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Considering the current economic and financial recession, what would you advise JPMorgan Chase to do in the next five years in order to keep JPMorgan Chase on top?
Apply on company website - Hirevue interview - Superday (2 rounds of back to back interviews, each 30 minutes). Overall, although the position is global cross asset trading. They didn't ask many technical questions. The interview was completely behavior driven. I prepared a ton of trading questions which were never asked lol.

Question 1
Can you share an example of how you adapted to a significant change in the workplace?
Very easy and was not many technical questions. only got asked on wha the markets were doing and where i would invest my money. Other than that all behavioral. I suggest doing it.
First had a standard HireVue with behavioral following a Superday after three weeks that had three interviews back to back with private bank advisors within the Family Wealth Division with a mix of behavioral and technical questions.
