I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at JPMorganChase (New York, NY) in Oct 2018
Interview
I applied online for the Software Engineer Intern program. I was sent a HireVue interview package which consisted of two 30-minute coding questions followed by two 3-minute webcam responses in which you have 30 seconds to prepare each answer. I then received two 30-minute phone interviews, one where I walked the recruiter through my resume and talked about which JPMorgan product I liked and how I would improve it and one where I was grilled on data structures (e.g. how to implement a hash table, hash functions, threading).
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Given an array of coin values [1, 3, 6] and a value, return the minimum # of coins that will add up to the value.
Choose a number, reverse its digits and add it to the original. If the sum is not a palindrome (which means, it is not the same number from left to right and right to left), repeat this procedure. For example:
195 (initial number) + 591 (reverse of initial number) = 786'
786 + 687 = 1473
1473 + 3741 = 5214
5214 + 4125 = 9339 (palindrome)
Was given a leetcode problem within the first 4 mins of the interviewer. Wish I was making this up. Interviewers did not really introduce themselves besides names, straight to the code problem.The interview felt extremely cold. No soul, no passion, no discussion
Asked very scripted questions and everyone took a lot of notes. I really enjoyed the people I spoke with and they really made me think about the role and my past

Interview
Asked a few questions about C++ via a word doc. The interviewer was very rude from the beginning of the interview. He seemed to be angry at me for even being in the interview and taking his time. This person should not be giving interviews. Maybe he wanted to yell at someone who couldn't yell back. Very unprofessional, I ended the interview early because I was so upset.
