Morgan Stanley Senior Associate interview questions

I was approached by a third party consultation agency to setup an interview at MS. The interviews were good. Since the role was of non- market risk, a lot of qualitative questions were asked instead of quantitative. After 3 months of interview with 6 rounds, many of them taken up by onshore VPs, they extended me an offer. The offer was way below my expectations hence I asked them if they could do some adjustments to the offer. HR said that she will hand it over to business for approval. After that conversation, no communication was received from their end for another 3 months until one day I called hiring manager and he told me that they already hired someone and was surprised that HR did not inform me about this. I sent couple of emails for an update. No reply to those. Calls were not answered. Such level of unprofessionalism is never expected of Morgan Stanley. They don't even have basic courtesy to provide a closure to a candidate who completed a 3 month interview process with 6 rounds.

It took 3 weeks. Role was for Java and database technologies. There were 4 technical rounds followed by director rounds and HR discussion. Entire process was very smooth and they cover questions on entire resume.
