I just interviewed via zoom for JPMorgan Chase for trade support (thinking no more interviews were needed). The next day the recruiter calls me, saying that the team is very interest and went over logistics. She said she was going to talk back to the team and let me know next steps. The next day I get an e-mail requesting an interview again for the role but from the recruiting coordinator. Does JP give offers via zoom? Any similar stories?

Confidence shook! Help! Career coach hired, but I was told by a HH my chronological resume should be re-worked into a functional resume. I’ve been with my firm since 2003, in my current dept since 2011 with a few promotions since, but the job didn’t change that much as my title grew except for more $$. My mental health has taken a toll & the WLB hasn’t been very balanced at all in recent years. I need to get out & haven’t really looked for a job in almost 20 years.

For context, I am the only non-parter on the investment team so there is no one else to compare myself to.
