Hello guys, did anyone fill up the application for JP Morgan's IB Risk Programme? I sent my application today, does anyone know how long does the whole process take? Will you be doing an online numerical test or is it going to be tested at the First round interview sessions at their offices?

any insights will be highly appreciated.

cheers, abhi

Hey guys,

I applied for the summer internship. Do you have any idea how long it will take before they give an update on the application status? I did the online test a week ago, and am still waiting. It's a little nerve-wrecking because I want this one so bad:)

hello jobhunter_1,

How long did you get the online test inviation after you submitted the application? I applied for off-cycle internship last weekend but the status is still 'received'.

Thanks a lot.

hey litloser,

i had to wait around a week before i was sent the online test. i guess they have a pre-screening process and that's why it takes some time.

best of luck!

Hi all,

I applied to the IB grad scheme as well around the end of september, but hadn't had any email correspondance from them.

Are there deadlines to comlete the numerical test because after signing in I found I was invited to the online test but dont know if I completed on time?

This was a few weeks ago and I havent heard anything back yet.

Good luck all!

Hi guys,

I sent my application to IB Risk on 13th September and was invited to tests on the 30th. After completing these, I was contacted on 6th October to confirm my invitation to the first round interviews. My interview is next Tuesday in London and I've been told I will have two 30-minute competency based interviews in addition to maybe having to complete further numerical tests. Does anyone have any idea as to what questions may be asked in the interviews? Any advice would be extremely helpful for me going into them (I'm afraid they're going to tear me to shreds). I also completed a 12-month placement last year in Finance for GDF Suez, how likely is this to have an impact on my potential recruitment?

All the best to everyone else applying to the role! I will document my experiences after my interview next Tuesday to assist others in my position.

well done on the interviews jim. when you were invited to do the tests was it just an invite or did it give you a deadline to complete it in?

if they are competency based I am sure you will be fine, especially with your experience in Finance. the later round will probably be tough when you will need to research more about the industry, company etc

good luck mate

Hi, pendresc

When I was invited to a numerical online test, they asked me to finish the test within 5 days. Hope this could help you.

Good luck.

jim1109

Thanks very much. Yes, I had a deadline to complete the tests too. Fingers crossed I'll get through to the next stage, best of luck to you all.

Hi guys! Who knows what status on application page should be after finishing online numerical test? I have "Online numerical test in progress" and I still have the button "Re-start Test". Is it fine or should I take the test one more time? Thanks in advance)

litloser

Hi mastoraris,

They haven't got back to me. It has been two weeks after I finished the online test. What about your application?

Has anyone heard from JP Morgan today? I had my interview on Dec 8th and they said they would get back at us at the end of this week.

Hi :) I have the same problem too :( My current status is online numerical test in progress even though i took the test over a week ago. Should it take this long to update? x

To my sincere surprise, I was extended an offer for the summer (IB Risk-London). Anyone here will be interning at JP Morgan as well? Would love to discuss fun stuff such as looking for housing during the Olympics...
