I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at JPMorganChase (New York, NY) in Nov 2010
Interview
Two mid-managers from Chicago office interviewed me. It is an overall very behavioral-question based interview. Most of them about past internship and academic experiences. One brain teaser (fairly easy). Several questions about market (interest rate etc). It's a relatively relaxed and easy interview. The hiring process involves two-round interviews, first round and a superday.
Sales and trading hirevue interview. Asks 3 questions with no prep time and only one take. Questions about markets like talk about a recent transaction and why JPMorgan. Not hard questions but just have answers prepared because you only get one shot
Hirevue, 6 questions. General behavioural ones such as 'why this role' or 'why this company' and a few questions about market knowledge, 'what recent news event has interested you'. Overall was a typical hirevue, I was not used to talking into a camera and didn't have polished answers.
