I expected the JPMorgan process to be competitive, and it was. It stretched over several weeks with multiple checkpoints, starting with resume shortlisting and online assessments. The difficulty felt high enough that strong effort still did not guarantee meeting their bar.
I also heard about a later, high-pressure in-person part: a hackathon connected to an office location. Those reports described it as a filter involving bonding and mentors, with people who formed good connections and engaged with mentors receiving offer letters. Before that were structured screens for coding and work-related ability.
I did not make it past an online assessment, so I never reached that later event. The process nevertheless seemed deliberate, encouraging in tone, and intense. I came away feeling they wanted more than competence alone: a very particular fit under time pressure and across several rounds.
Location: Mumbai. Overall feedback: Positive. Offer status: No offer.
