Fairly standard and very behavioral. They really want to see the way you think and that you can explain and defend your argument. Definitely know your resume and your thought process.
I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in May 2025
Interview
It is a very structured first round. i expected it to be very hard at first. However, it is very competitive so it makes sense that not everyonce can advance to the second round.
30-minute phone call made by analyst, not an alum from my uni. Called 10 minutes before set time. Mostly behavioral with the exception of 2 simple technical questions and one brain teaser.

I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Mar 2025
Interview
It was great, I think that I did not have enough structure and was very stressed. However, I did not too much about the role and I think that factor played a huge part in the interview.
