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?

Mock Interviews:

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

Congratulations on clearing the coding round! For a video interview with JP Morgan, you can expect a mix of technical and behavioral questions. Here’s a breakdown of what to anticipate and how to prepare:

Are you struggling with weight loss and finding it hard to stay consistent? What’s your biggest challenge when trying to lose weight at home?

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

Behavioral Preparation:

Company Research:

Hillary thinks we must censor or "we lose total control". Why does she demand total control?

- 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.

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!

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

Why do people think Justin Bieber is worse than Joseph Stalin?

- 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.

Final Thoughts

What is the nastiest thing you had your wife do and she loved it?

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

- 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).

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

Do you believe that social media companies should allow posts spreading misinformation about election results, as suggested by Rep. Jim Jordan?

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

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

Types of Questions

What’s the best way to get over someone you love?

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

Review Technical Concepts:

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

Why wasn't Queen as successful in America as in other countries? Then, after Radio Ga Ga, they couldn't even get into the top 40 in America even when these songs were top 10 hits everywhere else in the world.

Technical Setup:

- Motivation and Interest: Why you want to work at JP Morgan, your understanding of the company culture, and how your goals align with theirs.
