      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Sacramento, CA) in Jan 2010

      Did a brief phone interview followed by testing and then a final sit down interview.

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Philadelphia, PA)

      Interview

      The overall interview process is not extremely difficult. Meeting with the a manager and maybe another senior advisor whom is involved with the hiring process. Detailed business plan to prepare. More on showing them how you can succeed at the job. It would probably be two to three interviews before actual consideration.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley in Mar 2024

      Interview

      Starts off with a 30 min aptitude test followed by a 1-2 hour simulation of being an advisor in LA. This is followed by a 30 min hireview and 3 more tests if selected to move forward. At the end of the hireview you receive an email saying someone will be in touch and nobody contacted me. Had to check my status of the application through the applicant portal to find out I was no longer under consideration. Nothing out of the ordinary in the process except for the fact that I didn't get to speak to a single person throughout it and that is not very professional in my opinion.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      mental math aptitude, picture matching, personality tests

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Rockville, MD)

      Interview

      Inept as inept can be. Couldn’t describe the job responsibilities effectively. It felt scummy the whole entire process. I would avoid at all costs. Heard bad things about this place.
