Interviewed Aug 2011 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
The interviewer only asked 2 to 3 questions and didnt look very interested in me at all. I didnt understand why would they choose me for this phone interview at first place.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 3 months)
I had a phone interview, an in-person interview, and was then invited to the Superday at the headquarters. They flew me out and paid for everything, including hotel. The superdays had about 75 applicants each day and went for 3 days. Where you are coming from will determine which day you are assigned. I had 3 separate 1 on 1 interviews with people from all different departments. The interviews were shockingly unobtrusive, which made them deceivingly hard. The company does not like Economics, Finance, Business for these positions. One of the FIxed Income Data Analysts openly confessed during a panel session that she had no idea what a bond was and never follows the stock market. She was a history major. Overall, interview process seemed a bit of a joke. It was not very well planned and had a sheep-like feel.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 6 days)
The lady on the phone was quite rude and in too much hurry to get it done. She was asking basic questions like why do you want this position and what will you bring to it. Few days later, I get same rejection email TWICE.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 2 weeks)
Initially contacted by HR a few days after submitting a application. They asked the usual questions to make sure I know what Morningstar was about and to make sure I was interested. A week later I was invited to their office in Chicago, very modern and casual. I went through three rounds of interviews which were all 1:1. I was asked about my education, current job, the economy, and personality. I was asked to come in the following week, and talk about a financial instrument, I chose a Lord Abbett fund.

Reason for Declining
Morningstar wanted me to start immediately but I had a commitment to my current employer for 6 more months.
Other Details

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 3 weeks)
Applied to Morningstar Development Program on college career site, invited to first round interview. Very straightforward with 2 HR representatives, asking basic personality questions (personal goals, teamwork experience) then expected questions such as what do you know about the company, and why us why the position.
Second round was in Chicago headquarters with other MDP candidates. First 'superday' is usually with locals of Chicago, and the day after is for candidates from out of state/country. 4 half-hour Interviews with either HR or people in your respective department. Questions mostly behavioral. I think you will only be asked technical questions if your resume begs for it, or if you purposely steer the conversation that way. Dinner is provided at the end of the day. Overall the experience was really relaxed and informative. A lot of people invited to this day had interned at some point with Morningstar. They give you about 3 weeks to decide about offer.

Interviewed Nov 2007 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
There was a full day of interviews, including 3 one-on-one interviews. Morningstar makes all levels of employees available to do interviews, including top management (CEO, CFO, etc.). Each interview was 30 minutes long and relatively low stress. It was not expected that candidates have prior finance industry background. There was also a panel with current Data Analyst employees for a questions and answer session.
