I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Shanghai, Shanghai) in Feb 2011
Interview
Three rounds of interviews about self-intro, general experience, characters and personality, knowledge about the company and HR departments conducted by staff 2, recruiting manager and senior manager of the HR department, both in English and Chinese
questions focused mostly on competencies, teamwork, leadership, difficult situation etc.
knowing the job description, the expected daily tasks and company profile important too..
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Algorithm questions
Why are you better than other candidates?
Which valuation technique would yield a higher value for a firm-Public Comparables? or Past Transaction Comparables?
Everyone was professional and nice, at lease looked like they were. I made it through the final interview and received positive feedback from the HR, then got completely ghosted. No offer, no rejection, no response. Radio Silence.
Three rounds. First over the phone with HR. Second round via zoom. Final round in person. Spread out over 3 months. Using AI for scheduling and setting up calendar invites.
First round with sector head then second round with written test including a model test translation and then last round meet apac head, solid stock pitch needed, overall not really difficult
