Interviewed Nov 2011 in Syracuse, NY (took a day)
i applied through my school's website and received a phone call for interview. The interviewer in Syracuse was very knowledgeable and open minded. He would hire students from various majors and place them in a positions that have little or no resemblance.
I had a 1 on 1 interview in Lyman Hall. Based on my experience, it was an average level interview. Primarily he asked me questions related to my resume and relevant coursework. He would also ask what I know about JPMC.
Some advices is to research about the position you're applying for and try to know as much as you can regarding the business lines JPMC owns. Know a little bit about the history of the company as well. JPMC likes candidates who are proactive, professional, and constantly wanting to learn.

They ask what you are expecting (know what you are worth use glassdoor and other resources) their offer was in line with what market dictates and I got a little extra (probably because of my experiece and MBA). The offer process(after I knew that they were going to be making me an offer) took weeks, needed CIO approval but they came back with only 2000 less than what I had asked for but offered another additional 7000 in bonus based on performance.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Tampa, FL (took 6 weeks)
I applied under the university programs at JPMorgan Chase career page for 2012 Technology Analyst Development Program on November 21, 2011. The campus recruiter will receive your application. If the recruiter is interested in you they will send a email asking you to fill out this spreadsheet application and to send your most current resume. I received this email on December 1, 2011. A week later on December 8, 2011, I received an email from the recruiter asking my location preference. Then the recruiter will select who gets phone interview by hiring managers. I received an email about scheduling a phone interview on December 13, 2011. I received another email from the recruiter confirming the date and time of the phone interview. My phone interview was on December 21, 2011. It was very technical with some behavioral based questions. On January 4, 2012, I received an email that I was selected for the Super final (2nd) round interview which was on January 11, 2012 from 1pm - 4:30pm. After your phone interview if selected for 2nd round interviews you will go to Super Day on campus (JPM worksite) for the final (2nd) round interviews which consists of two interviews and one 10-15 minute presentation on a technical project of your choice. Final rounds were more behavioral based than technical. The final round interviews and presentation was a lot more relaxed than I had anticipated. I was notified on the same day by the recruiter that I had received a offer. But they say it can take up to one week to be notify whether you got a offer or rejection. I say normally it takes one to two days for notification of offer. But the hiring managers and recruiter will make decisions on the same day as the interviews who will get a offer or rejection. It took about a week to receive actually offer letter. Throughout whole interview process you will interview with hiring managers usually in your choice of position if that role is available.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Columbus, OH (took 5 days)
My communication with the company from start to finish was very professional. They came to my school through the career services, and met many candidates, of which they only took two to work in Columbus. It was a very rigorous interview, but the two recruiters were very amiable. Columbus is the area of their tech hub, and is a very great place to work.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
The interview process started with an on campus interview where I was asked, personality questions, light technical questions, and questions about JP Morgan Chase.
About a month after the on campus interview was the super day at the JP Morgan office. This consisted of 1 “technical” one on one interview, 1 “personality” one on one interview, and one “presentation” interview with 2 managers. It was extremely relaxed and very little pressure in the interviews. For the presentation, they just want you to talk to the manager for 10 to 15 minutes about a topic of your choice. They really just want to know you can put together and give a decent presentation. Be confident, clear, and know your facts. You cannot use PowerPoint or formal presentation materials. They just want you to talk and if you need a visual, they have a white board or flip chart to use.
Less than a week after the super day interview, I was called with an offer. They sent an e-mail with a link to their HR site to accept the offer.

Interviewed Apr 2009 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
While transitioning my career from a low regarded, boring, painful phone based tech support job (that is the perception of such a job in India) no matter how elite the client is (mine was one of the 'elite'est ), a staffing firm, Magna Infotech, from Indiranagar, Bangalore called me out of the blue one fine day and offered me this title for Chase due to my background with supporting Outlook. In a couple of hours a phone Interview was set from Chase HQ in NYC and i got the call from my future boss. The interview was very cool, professional yet relaxed. The interviewer was very nice to me in all regards and let me answer the questions at my pace, patiently listening to all i had to say. I was a little nervous though (while I'm never nervous at any other interviews) and took lot of words to describe little things like my previous work experience with outlook, its working and PST files. Just 4-5 questions, total interview time of < 20 mins and we're done.
Next day i get a call from Magna, the lady playfully asking me to guess why she called. I say, most nonchalantly, 'I'm hired'. Salary discussions with Magna took a while (3 hours) to negotiate on a good figure. INR 280k is not a great amount but not so bad to begin with. There was just one round of interview and that too <20 mins......amazing ! isn't it. Overall, very professional company, don't waste time attitude, interviews depend on requirements -- can be long, grilling too. They retain only smart workers hence Smart People in office everywhere, formally dressed all weekdays which is something i like and liked to do myself. Destiny matters in life, as did this job walk in my life without me least expecting such a thing

Magna was cheap with money. Was trying to press me for really less. Don't know how chase is but sure they pay by industry standards

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Seattle, WA (took 3 days)
I was asked to draw a workflow chart of a peanut butter sandwich on the white board. Of which, I was unable to read my writing since I was so nervous. I initially interviewed with the HR manager who asked for my salary requirements and she assured me that they were willing to pay top dollar for talent. I do not think I was a good fit for the role.
