Application

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Oct 2023

Interview

First round was phone interview of about 40min, with resume screening and tech questions distributed evenly. The tech part includes basic understanding for Greeks and exotic options. Overall it was not quite different but needs solid foundation for quant finance.

A lot of challenging math based questions and brain teasers. These were significantly harder than intro level questions for other firms. Definitely not for every one. Definitely apply if interested
