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?

Types of Questions

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

Mock Interviews:

Why is Matt Gaetz being investigated but not Sarah (Tim) McBride? Why do we only care about grooming when it's the Republicans doing it?

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

Behavioral Questions:

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

China tightens ‘whole-chain’ control on critical minerals amid US pressures - South China Morning Post

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

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

Company Research:

Why are so many US conservatives in this day and age still against racial mixing? They won't say it in public, but they are still against the mixing between Blacks and whites? Why?

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

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

- 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.

'The Life of Chuck' might leave you brushing away tears — or scratching your head - NPR

Behavioral Preparation:

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

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

Why do trans people get so deeply offended when a stranger misgenders them, especially when it's a first encounter? I've been socially transitioned for 4 years and it just feels like a waste of energy to be so hurt by it.

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

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

Technical Questions:

Feds poised to approve SpaceX’s takeover of another military launch pad - Ars Technica

Technical Setup:

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.

Are you able to lie, even though you have Aspergers?

Review Technical Concepts:

- 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).

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!
