J.P. Morgan Private Bank Summer Associate interview

Good evening everyone,

I have an upcoming interview at J.P. Morgan for a Summer Associate position in their Private Banking division.

I was wondering if anyone here has interned at J.P. Morgan (in private banking) and could give me some tips on how to prepare for my interview.

Thank you.

If you had to smuggle 100g of diamonds through an international airport, what would be your approach? “Creative” solutions are welcome. You will thank me later.

Ohai’s being facetious - you wouldn’t be responsible for 100g of diamonds at the summer associate level. At most, you might be expected to conduct some due diligence on a few key airports.

You’ll want to brush up on the most effective ways of pledging client collateral. Typically, if you can demonstrate methods to use the same collateral against 5 different loans you’ll have gained yourself a FT offer.
