I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Apr 2021
Interview
Too many rounds, overall good. Technical part is mostly based on my past projects. I was interviewed through consultant, very short and straight forward. Almost all rounds are one to one interviews with technical team, HR, Team Lead, Manager and Scrum Masters. All are remote interviews with zoom meetings.

I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Bengaluru) in Jan 2026
Interview
It has 6 rounds, all are technical.
Technical questions related to Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, Kafka.
After 2 and half months, they don't have any answer and put the position on hold. This is totally wasting of time.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Bengaluru) in May 2025
Interview
I found the interview process at Morgan Stanley to be less about meaningful engagement with the candidate and more focused on showcasing the interviewer's own expertise. Rather than fostering a two-way conversation to evaluate mutual fit and problem-solving ability, the interaction felt one-sided and performative. There was a noticeable lack of genuine interest in understanding my background or perspectives, with much of the time spent on complex technical questions seemingly chosen more to impress than assess.
