I applied in-person. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Chase (Houston, TX) in Feb 2023
Interview
The interview process for a software engineering position at Chase typically begins with a resume screening and phone screening to assess qualifications and motivation. This is followed by technical interviews, coding challenges, and behavioral assessments, culminating in a final interview and job offer if successful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain the difference between HTTP and HTTPS. Describe the principles of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). What is the difference between a stack and a queue? Provide real-world examples of each. Explain the concept of a RESTful API. How does a hash table work, and what are its advantages and disadvantages? Can you explain the concept of polymorphism in OOP? What is the purpose of an index in a database, and how does it improve query performance?
Easy because the interview was a phone call screening then an oa that took about 2 hours to complete then i spoke to four senior software engineers and spoke to them about behavioral and technical questions
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Chase (San Diego, CA) in Sept 2025
Interview
For the technical recruiter round, it was a phone call (called me out of the blue I wasn't ever prepared) but it went suprisingly well. It was more like an informative call. For the technical round, it was an interview with the principal engineer, asked me a lot of high performance computing related questions (since that was what I was interviewing for). I should have prepared better, I tried to cover in breadth, instead I should have just focused on what I actually had experience in.

Question 1
HPC details of my project like the number of parameters, size of the model I was training on the HPC etc
alright, pretty hard, definitely something that required a lot of critical thinking and system design. definitely would not doing this interview again though the interviewer was super hard.alright, pretty hard, definitely something that required a lot of critical thinking and system design. definitely would not doing this interview again though the interviewer was super hard.
