I have attended for an interview at JP Morgan for the post of Software Engineer II .NET. I have cleared all the technical rounds and attended the behavioral round with executive director too. I went through all the interview rounds, including the final HR discussion where compensation and joining timelines were discussed and agreed. Everything seemed positive, and I was expecting an offer. However, I was surprised to receive a rejection email next day stating they were moving forward with other candidates. While I understand hiring decisions can change, clear and transparent communication would have been appreciated, especially after reaching the final stage. Candidates invest their time and effort, and a little more clarity or feedback would go a long way in maintaining trust and respect. I hope the company works on improving its candidate experience, especially at the final stages.

3 steps process: first a phone call with a recruiter, who sent me an hackerrank code assignment. Completed the assignment I was invited to a virtual onsite day with 3 rounds of interview: coding, system design and behavioral. Everything was done remotely.
