Associate Software Engineer Interview Experience - Tampa, Florida

March 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceGot Offer

Process

I applied through an employee referral.

The process took 2 weeks.

I interviewed at J.P. Morgan (Tampa, FL) in March 2022.

Interview conducted by 4 people. Mostly they were asking questions based on your experience. My major experience was in Java, so most of the questions were based on Java-related topics.

They will ask about the development, deployment, etc., processes you follow in your current organization.

I was preparing for the AWS certification, so after knowing that, they asked me 60% of questions on AWS and 40% on JAVA, Oracle, development, deployment process, etc.

Finally, they came up with a very basic offer for a person having 14 years of experience.

  • The offer was barely six digits per year, which will not change for the next 2 years.
  • Bonus is a maximum of 15k, but for the next 2 years, it can be anything between 0 to 15k because they asked me to join in the middle of 2022, so in 2022, my performance appraisal cannot be done. Based on 2023 performance, I will get the actual bonus in 2024.
  • Job relocation was 5k. If I change jobs within 1 year, I have to return 5k. If I move out in the second year of my employment, then I need to return 2.5k.
  • No I140 for the next 2 years, and after 2 years, there will be no guarantee that they will do it.

In all, a very poor experience.

I had already informed them before the interview that if JP cannot sponsor for I140, then don't waste my time and your time in the interview process.

Very disorganized hiring process. Communication was terrible.

The manager started speaking about your cost to the company, like H1 sponsorship, during the interview process itself.

I will not be considering JP Morgan ever again.

Questions

Mostly related to your current development process, related to SCRUM, development, deployment, etc. Java related and AWS services.
