I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Conshohocken, PA) in Apr 2015
Interview
First Round interview very casual over the phone with a team manager that lasts about 30 minutes. The team manager described the role mostly and asked some behavioral questions. Second Round was another phone interview with a Portfolio Management Associate in the branch. Similar to the first round in describing the role, a run through the resume, some fit questions. Third Round was 4 in person interviews with various employees for about 30 minutes each. Asked about Morgan Stanley and more fit questions, more resume questions. Fourth and last round was an interview with the 2 principals which I did not receive.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What about Morgan Stanley interests you and why do you want to work here in particular?
1st round of interview was on a zoom audio call. Basically a 'walk me through your resume'. Be prepared to have a compelling story and know your talking points. Do not just go through your resume line by line.

Tell me about yourself and walk me through your resume.
I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview was straight forward if you have some sort of financial experience and can answer technical questions. Additionally, would highly recommend you brush on your three statement modeling skills.
Wasn't too difficult, just talked about my background, my school, and why I wanted the position. Definitely just know your resume and be prepared to expand upon it, especially if you have prior sales experience.
