After submitting my resume for the Global Finance and Business Management full time position at JP Morgan (my dream job!), I got a HireVue invite the next day! However, I completed it 9 days ago and still have no response....
When do we get a response in average, and after how much time does it mean I probably am not getting an offer to continue?
Thanks!

Based on my experience at JPM and other firms, this is my personal opinion about your question:
If your goal is to advance swiftly into a financial advisor or wealth management career, the Registered CSA role at Morgan Stanley offers more direct, client-centric experience. It allows you not just to observe, but actively participate in the client lifecycle—from engagement and support to planning and marketing.
By contrast, the Private Client Investment Associate role at J.P. Morgan provides valuable structure and operational know-how—particularly useful for mastering compliance and process integrity—but it leans more toward backend support.
In resume, since your end game is to become a Financial Advisor or Wealth Manager, the Registered CSA at MS is your way to go my friend. Also, I’m 100% sure MS will pay you more than JPM. Good luck bud!
Great tips!
Having worked at JPMC....it is definitely a grind. Working under Jamie is no joke, but the firm benefits and rewards are amazing! The stock has been soaring and when I was there I contributed to buying company stock and has increased exponentially. Now he might be stepping down in the next few years so that is also something to consider who his replacement might be.
Also what's the base salary difference? That may be the determining factor as well.
Of course the benefits and perks are amazing lol do you know how much $ these companies are making off your work….? I say work for yourself. Build your own business. If you’re already in finance then do financial coaching for free and build trust with your clients. Once you teach them , they trust you and will come only to you for guidance. And they will even tell friends and family about you. I think it’s time we all start to thinking bigger. You deserve more!!!!
