I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at JPMorganChase (Dallas, TX) in June 2025
Interview
During the interview, they asked me to prepare a design document for their application. It was similar to what I did in my roles as architects for my previous employers. The requirements were provided by the headhunter company (BCForward). When I started presenting my design, I was told that the requirements based on their hardware configuration did not make sense for them. I then had to present a completely different design specification without using my PowerPoint slides.
