I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (London, England) in Sep 2025
Interview
Overall mix of fit and technical questions. Team wants to challenge you on the technicals so be ready to prepare technicals based on your resume. For instance if you did an internship in PE, they will ask about LBO etc
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself, Why this bank, Why this division
The OA was quite difficult involving aptitude, debugging and programming qns. The aptitude was most time consuming and where mostly pictorial and needed much time to solve. Debugging is better and included easier qns.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley
Interview
Straightforward, more focus on fit and eagerness than market knowledge. Everyone was kind, interviews were short but I talked to people in various teams. Multiple stages online then I eventually received an offer in person.
