Job considerations Environmental Risk at JPMC in DC

Hi all,

I am applying for a job at JP Morgan Chase in Washington, DC. It seems like an amazing opportunity, working on nature-related environmental risk.

However, coming from Europe I am a bit alarmed by all the stories about crazy working hours at the US banks.

I have two questions I hope someone can help me with:

1: the job is posted at both Senior Associate and Vice President level. I am having some difficulties assessing which one I should apply for. I have about 5 years of experience in banking. Can you tell me what the difference is between the two roles at JPMC and which one would make more sense to apply to with 5 years of experience?

2: I am having difficulties finding out what the expected working hours would be for either position, considering at in the risk department witb likely a longer term focus. Could someone give an indication of what would be expected at these positions?

Thank you very much!
