What JPMorgan Chase looks for

JPMorganChase's application guide asks for a one-page résumé saved as a PDF, tailored to the role's required qualifications. Use three or four bullets per role, start each with an action verb, and show how you worked alongside others. The firm says to share what you've accomplished "using measurable data when applicable" and that it's "interested in hiring the whole person." For stories in the application and interview, it suggests the SHER method: Situation, Hurdle, Endgame, Reflection.

Bullet formula: SHER in one line: [Situation] + [Hurdle you overcame] + [Endgame, measured] + (the Reflection is for the interview). Start with an action verb and name who you worked with.

Do

  • Keep it to one page and save it as a PDF. JPMorganChase's guide says so directly.
  • Use three or four bullets per role, each starting with an action verb.
  • Review the role's required qualifications and tailor to them. Highlight relevant skills and coursework.
  • Use measurable data wherever you can.
  • Show how you worked with others, not just what you did alone.
  • Before you submit, have three people check that it's easy to read, clear and tailored to the posting. That's the firm's own suggested exercise.

Avoid

  • Don't go past one page or write more than four bullets per role.
  • Don't use unapproved AI tools during interviews. The firm prohibits it.
  • Don't send one generic version. Tailor it to each posting.

Words from their postings

SHER, measurable results, collaboration, operations, risk and controls, client service, leadership, process improvement.

Veteran programs
