To help us understand your need for initial training and orientation in this role with JPMorgan Chase, can you tell me what financial software you have familiarity working on?
Financial software, in particular software geared towards financial analysis, is widely available to the industry with many options available for use. While this won't be a make it or break it question to see if you are experienced with the program that JPMorgan Chase utilizes, your interviewer will be looking to hear that you have experience on some of the available systems and that you are ready and willing to take on the challenge of learning something new if hired for this role. In the end in answering this question, make sure that you reiterate that you have the ability and the desire to learn a new program if needed to be successful in this role.
"Over the past ten years, I have pretty extensive experience working on Windham Portfolio Advisor and a program called LogicGate. Windham is a program that is used by my colleagues that are building client portfolios and I work on the risk management pieces with each advisor. LogicGate is a program that I completed an RFP to bring on to my department and it has helped us immensely. I do consider myself to have a very high technical acumen surrounding new software. Right now, what programs are your Risk Analysts using?"

I have worked with JPMorgan Chase previously. I am familiar with the software that is used in the job role. I would not need extensive training only to be refreshed in MSP, NDC, MBWS, PEGA, and Black Knight.

Well done! This answer highlights your connection to the company and confirms that you'll need minimal training, which makes you a desirable candidate because you'd be able to meet the demands of the role more quickly than a candidate requiring full training.
