Interview
Applied online. No online tests. The arranged a telephone interview. The person on the phone had a thick French accent and it was hard to understand his question. He did not help me to solve some very technical questions that he asked and he was doing something else during the interview (I could hear that he was typing on his keyboard and sometimes he was absent).

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at J.P. Morgan in Feb 2022
Interview
I interviewed for the position of Quantitative Research Associate for three different desks at JPM. The HR/recruiting teams for each of these groups did not communicate well with themselves internally. In total I had 6 interviews with the wholesale credit team, 2 with their RAAS group, and 1 with their rates desk.
Eventually, I received an offer from their wholesale credit team for what I believed was a below market offer. When I attempted to negotiate, they came back saying this was the most they can do, and I walked away.
