Morgan Stanley Summer Analyst Interview

Interviewed Jan 2011 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)

They called me on Friday at 8 p.m. and just said that i was invited to an interview that will take place <date and time> The person on the phone sounded neither friendly nor helpful, and was not expecting questions. I asked a couple of questions, one about which department I will be interviewed for - she answered IBD and that I was a lucky one. The office was quite good, but rather deserted and somewhat grave. I had two interviews, basically cv-based, with a little incline into professional skills and some questions on valuation (which I did not answer very well). The first interviewer was a vp, he asked me to tell him about myself and started crossing out items on my resume that I covered. Overall, his attitude was not overly serious, more of condescending. The second one was an analyst, he asked basically similar questions, with more emphasis on my research work. Overall, as it was my first IB interview ever, I felt that I kinda did not do well. That proved right, I was not called back.
