July 1, 2015
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I) Interview with a recruiter. Talk about yourself (skills, past projects, etc.).

II) Exercise: Write a simple application about the stock market. Pay attention to the implementation of the exercise because they want to see what you know about OOP. Therefore, I suggest you use:

  • Hierarchy
  • Composition
  • Interfaces and Abstract classes
  • Integration Test

Bad Stuff (Don't do it!!):

  • Large use of static methods
  • Use of complex conditional statements
  • Use of long, complex methods
  • Implementations of unuseful test cases (e.g., read/write on file)
  • Avoid logs (IF NOT REQUIRED).

III) Technical Interview

Questions

  1. OOP: What is it and which are its pillars?

  2. Lists and Collections in Java: Definition and complexity of operations.

  3. HashMap in Java: Definition and complexity of operations.

  4. Why JP Morgan?
