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!

I agree judgment is huge. Knowing when a model or analysis is “good enough” to make a decision can save time and prevent paralysis by analysis. On the flip side, what finance skill do you think is most overrated?

Expert excel skills. Certainly need to be proficient but no need for wizardry.
Agreed on judgment. I also think communication skills, especially the ability to explain technical concepts in layman’s terms, are just as important, if not more so.
I agree—communication skills are so important. You wouldn’t believe how many younger employees we have who don’t know how to communicate professionally at all. It drives me insane.
Agreed. Confidence in presenting to leaders is something I’ve noticed a lot of entry-level people can work on.

That is true. Practice definitely required there.
