Software Engineering Intern Review

I worked within the Corporate Investment Banking Division and had to work on a project from scratch. I used to have daily scrum meetings and had same level of responsibilities as an graduate. We had socials in each month during our internship where we used to network with others and learn more about other lines of businesses. I was required to code for a project from scratch and followed team's agile method of working.

Our responsibilities were same as that as of a full time software engineer. We got to attend meetings everyday with them and worked on code which actually goes into production. We had daily standup meetings with the team, which were based out of London and New York offices and towards the end of our presentation, we were asked our project to the entire senior management at the bank. We got an opportunity to work with the product teams as well.

Yeah, I learnt so much new stuff during my internship. Firstly, J.P. Morgan has many networking sessions for its interns where get to meet and interact with people from other lines of businesses. Agile methodology was another thing I learnt here, having daily scrum meetings and having to work with Jira, having sprints and doing a sprint planning & reviews along the way. I got equipped with multiple new tech stack as well, which includes multiple languages, tools, frameworks, databases, etc.

People at J.P. Morgan are super helpful and supportive. They'll always try to create an environment where you feel you belong here, and part of the team. You could literally walk up to anyone in the office for help and they would be more than willing to help you out. The technology support here is state of the art, with the technology team working round the corner to fulfill the bank's needs.

The culture here is very inclusive and JPM focusses heavily on work life balance. The people that you meet here come from very diverse communities around the globe. The company hosts monthly socials for interns and have different speaker sessions regularly to help them succeed at their goals.

I personally had the best summers of my life and its always a fun day here in the office here. The team is super friendly and supportive about the work and push you to give your maximum.
