JP Morgan Interview Process: Rounds, Timeline & Compensation
Michael King, PE Investment Manager ·
JP Morgan runs 2 rounds: an initial video/HireVue interview, then a Superday (typically 3-4 interviews with analysts through VPs). In the UK, summer analyst and full-time applications open in the autumn and are assessed on a rolling basis; Superdays run in batches with quick post-interview turnaround. US summer recruiting runs far earlier in the cycle. In London, first-year analyst base runs roughly £55k-£85k, with total comp around £90k-£150k after bonus — roughly 20-30% below the New York benchmark of ~$110k-$120k base and ~$180k-$220k all-in.

Notes
As one of the largest banks on the Street, JP Morgan runs a high volume of interview slots each cycle — volume works in a prepared candidate's favour, but it also means less individual attention per interview, so a tight, rehearsed pitch matters more than at smaller shops.
