Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Initial shortlisting
Experience: Only students from the CS and IT branches at NITK were permitted to enroll for the process. A minimum CGPA requirement was set after which 80 of us were eligible to write the aptitude test.

Round: Test
Experience: Written aptitude test: Consisted of 4 multiple choice papers - Logical reasoning, quant, English and basic programming for which we were given 20 minutes each. Felt that the questions were simple and pretty straightforward. The results were announced in the afternoon and 20 of us had cleared the test.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Technical Interview: I was asked moderate questions on algorithms, database systems and the projects I had done in college. The interviews went on till around 6 pm after which 11 of us progressed to the final round.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR interview: This was an interview that I really enjoyed. The HR manager began with the clichéd questions and then went on to ask some very interesting ones for about half an hour.

General Tips: "If you're keen on knowing what it was like to intern at J.P. Morgan, you could visit this link on my personal blog and read the article I had written about my internship.
Do not use the internship only as an opportunity to get employed. Assess what the firm has to offer you and whether a full-time job there would help you in the long-term scheme of things.
In any case, I do believe that an internship at J.P. Morgan would be a great way for you to get an insight into the corporate world, especially if you're keen on working in the technology sector in the financial services industry."
