Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The insight week was packed eith activities and learning relating to the Software Engineering jobs at J.P Morgan Chase. On a daily basis, we received informative talks from Software Engineers and our recruiters, combined with fun group activities and challenges. The last two days of the program was the Code for Good hackathon, where we were able to put our skills to use and collaborate with our peers.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Learning about the company and potential roles was very informative and I was able to gain an understanding of how Software Engineering is done at J.P Morgan that I would not be able to looking from the outside.

Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
I enjoyed the insight week immensely. I learned so much including technical and nontechnical knowledge. I pushed myself out of my comfort zone to connect with as many people as I can and learn from them. The hackathon experience was also very fun and challenging. I would love to go back and do it all over again.
