three back to back interviews with one pressure interview. each one lasted around 30 minutes. mostly behavioural/ fit questions. got two brainteaser questions. very few technical questions. interviewers were nice.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (London, England) in Nov 2013
Interview
- First the online application
- Immediately invited to a numerical test
- Nearly 2 months later, phone interview invite by e-mail
- The first phone interview was mainly competency based: why MS, why M&A
- Some technical questions like valuation techniques and financial statements/ratios
- Shortly after I was invited to a second phone interview
- Much harder, extremely technical, many current news questions as well
- Both interviews were in French instead of English, which was highly unexpected
