Common J.P. Morgan HireVue Questions
Expect a mix of behavioral and technical questions:
Behavioral (Most Common)
- •Tell me about yourself.
- •Why investment banking?
- •Why J.P. Morgan?
- •Describe a time you worked on a team.
- •What are your greatest strengths?
Technical (Sometimes Included)
- •Walk me through the three financial statements.
- •What is enterprise value?

Technical Setup Tips
- Lighting: Face a window or use a ring light. Avoid backlighting.
- Background: Plain, clean background. Avoid clutter or distractions.
- Camera Height: Position at eye level or slightly above. Stack books under laptop if needed.
- Internet: Use wired connection if possible. Close other apps using bandwidth.
- Audio: Quiet room. Consider earbuds with a microphone for clearer audio.
- Dress: Professional attire from head to toe (you may need to stand up).
Pro Tips for Success
- Look directly at the camera, not at yourself on screen
- Practice your answers out loud before recording - multiple times
- Use the STAR method for behavioral questions (Situation, Task, Action, Result)
- Keep answers concise - aim for 60-90 seconds per question
- Show energy and enthusiasm - it's harder to convey on video
- Do the interview when you're mentally sharp, not late at night
- Have notes nearby (off-screen) but don't read from them
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Waiting until the deadline to complete the interview
- Reading from a script (it's obvious on video)
- Having poor lighting or audio quality
- Rambling or going over the time limit
- Looking at yourself instead of the camera
- Not practicing enough beforehand
