I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Budapest) in Jul 2024
Interview
Very unprofessional. I got until 2 rounds of interviews, nor the HR, nor the managers/potential group leaders could give an answer regarding the possible salary. I had a question regarding the same job in the same division but for the medior position, they did not answer a question saying it's not their territory, although the job description was the very same.
