J.P. Morgan Software Engineer interview experience

Posted Jan 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I applied for an experienced software engineer role and the process felt straightforward at first: I received an email with a link to an online HackerRank assessment, and I completed it the next day.

A short while later, I got an email confirming I cleared that step.

After the assessment, the timeline stretched out in an awkward way. I didn’t receive any updates about what came next, and it ended up being around one and a half months before I was still waiting on further communication. The inbox silence was the most noticeable part, since the initial step moved quickly.

I never made it beyond the online assessment in terms of actual interviews scheduled, and eventually the lack of response meant I didn’t reach an offer. My honest reflection was that the hardest part wasn’t the test
