Lots of basic questions. Will quiz you on the current market. Very straightforward interview, will be on zoom in a large conference room, so a little informal. Come dress in business attire.
I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY)
Interview
Phone screening with a recruiter, followed by a several-hour-long HireVue assessment with both written and video-response questions. Finally, there were two back-to-back 30-minute remote interviews: one with a leader in the VEA program and the other with a younger team member currently in a VEA role. The entire process took a couple of weeks.

Tell me about yourself, describe a time when..., how would you handle [x] scenario
Very Slow response, ghosted me until a month after my second round interview. Even though I followed up multiple times with different recruiters. Employees said they would stay in touch but never accept my requests. Overall, really bad process. Would not do it, waste of time
