I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Baltimore, MD) in Mar 2015
Interview
One "super day" interview at their office. Interviewed with HR and then 3 manager for different teams. Finished with a creative "teamwork" activity. I was with a group of other interviewees and we had to work together to build an architectural model out of office products such as paper clips, tape, etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you dealt with a difficult client/employee and how did you handle the situation.
Asking general behavioral questions like self intro, any relevant experience with client, future career plan, etc. It was two round in person interview and nice culture and people. Good experience overall
I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Glasgow, Scotland)
Interview
Was very nice. They show you the building between rounds of interviews. First is a group interview, and then two individual interviews. The people are nice as well, and very friendly.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Feb 2026
Interview
Simple and straightforward and something you can take with you after. I hdid a lot of prep, and believe it is important to do so even until the morning of. It is also important to know about the firm and be yourself.
