I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Baltimore, MD) in Nov 2012
Interview
Attended Early Insights Program was then asked to come in for an interview for full time - consisted of 2 1:1s 30 min each and a group activity with the other candidates where we were all monitored for 1hr (might have been 1.5 hrs) nicest HR group ever - 1:1s were VPs from the office

Question 1
Know what operations actually is - don't say you want to be in sales and trading
I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview process was conducted in a professional and welcoming manner. The interviewer was approachable and began by asking for a brief overview of my background. From there, we had a solid conversation about my past work, some of my personal projects, and the certifications I've earned. Overall, I would call this a positive experience and I am looking forward to my next round.

Question 1
One of the questions that stuck with me was "Why Parametric?"
Asking general behavioral questions like self intro, any relevant experience with client, future career plan, etc. It was two round in person interview and nice culture and people. Good experience overall
I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Glasgow, Scotland)
Interview
Was very nice. They show you the building between rounds of interviews. First is a group interview, and then two individual interviews. The people are nice as well, and very friendly.
