I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Mar 2025
Interview
It was very standard- normal questions about background and asking me questions about my previous experiences and goals. They were very nice and professional. Would recommend to a friend or someone interested in working there
Easy because interviewer was asking me relevant questions according to my expertise. She is from new York office and she wanted someone who can handle risk between middle to back office.

Question 1
Describe risk management and how can we use in capital markets
Extremely easygoing. Nothing to be panicked about. Go in thinking of interview as a conversation between potential colleagues. It was extremely casual. Don’t be nervous…… also keep asking questions if you have any about company’s culture
First interview was an online digital questionnaire. Consisted of the three questions on Hirevure and was pretty straightforward. Are able to practice beforehand and see sample questions you my be asked.
