I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Jun 2017
Interview
Within one week after I applied, I got an email from a recruiter regarding scheduling phone interview. Process was clear and fast. Because their process is moving quickly, I had interview with not the recruiter but directly with an associate on the strategy team.
