      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley in Apr 2014

      Interview

      Was pretty fast, called in less than 2 weeks after applying by hiring manager. Interview was technical questions didn't care about my CV. Interviewer was pretty rude, there wasn't a proper interview room booked, no structure was not impressed.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley in Jul 2024

      Interview

      There was resume shortlisting. It was followed by technical test and then we had 3-4 rounds of interviews (technical+HR). In the interview, they asked questions related to prob and stats, puzzles and some financial questions. Difficulty of questions started increasing with each level of interview.

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley in Nov 2023

      Interview

      Starts with a 45 min interview preparation - you'll receive a very long research package, and you need to leverage this research package and respond to a specific question raised, better to make some simple slides for presentation as well. There are two interviewers listening to your 15min presentation and then 15min Q&A, not easy actually. The next session is a 30min interview with two other interviewers. Quite chill and mainly behavioral and resume based.
