I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (White Plains, NY) in Jan 2011
Interview
4 interviews at 30 mins each. Sorta a waste of time only to be outshined by an ivey leaguer - questions were mostly personality based with very little technical knowledge questioned or sales skills needed - simply pitching yourself
Have read a recent book that you can talk about, know some basic economics and youre good
vertual interview with the whole team with 4-5 people. most questions are technical. and there is also behavior question. most of them have average difficulty. And there is also questions on my past experiences.
Due colloqui, preceduti da un classico test online di logica, ecc. Nessuno dei due è stato troppo tecnico, servivano per conoscere il candidato e valutare le sue conoscenze di base.
