The interview process

Described in candidates’ own words.

So I had an initial screening with HR first. Then there was an assessment day where I met other candidates. We did some tests and then I had a short interview where they asked me why I want to join the company, what my career goals are, and if I have the technical knowledge for the role.Candidate-reported process
Overall, the interview process was a great experience. I enjoyed the conversation and felt it was a strong opportunity to connect my background to the work Morgan Stanley does. There was a HireVue followed by a one-on-one.Candidate-reported process
I had a phone interview with two people from the quant team. It felt pretty casual but still professional. The first round was with the manager where they asked general questions. The second round was with a team member, and we worked on a brain teaser question, which I personally found to be quite challenging.Candidate-reported process
