I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley in Jan 2014
Interview
Pretty standard recruiting process. Two rounds of phone interviews, and then on-site final round interview. Meeting 3 people in total, 1 group discussion and 1 presentation. An intense 5-hour process with few breaks in between. Candidates' background are really strong, and you should be prepared to defense yourself during the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
pitch a currency that you think will be the best performing one next year
The process started with an online application and HireVue interview with behavioral and basic market questions. Questions focused on my background, interest in markets, recent market news, a brain teaser, etc...
The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
It was good up until the AC and call i was given after the process. Very negative experience in AC with a power tripping interviewer - think old school Wall street dumb. Extremely rude and unprofessional individual - no idea why he is interviewing candidates. Was told wouldn't find out the outcome until several months later - likely as better candidates might come through, which is understandable, but they gave me a BS reason for the delay. Just be honest.

- Non-financial case study - 1 technical interview - 2 fit interviews They seem to separate MS interns from other candidates (do a separate AC for them). - They did not send rejection emails to all the candidates that did not get an offer
