I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Hong Kong) in Oct 2016
Interview
There were two original phone interviews with a VP and MD in equity and fixed income sales, for HK and Singapore offices. The first round was mostly market related questions, and the second mostly fit questions. Then, I was flown out for the superday/assessment center in Hong Kong where I had 1 case study/presentation, one interview with the managing director, and one group presentation.
After the technical round , it had a phone interview with the CVA/XVA team. I was asked 3 questions and they seemed pretty simple. They wanted to learn about my thought process.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Jul 2024
Interview
I reached out and got a referral from a connection I knew from my high school. I was then given an in-person interview. It was pretty formal but not difficult.
