I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Jan 2011
Interview
Got the interview through school career services. Went to interview. The interviewer was very nice, asked all personality questions except for one or two basic valuation questions. Basically just asked everything off of your resume, so you should definitely know your resume cold, and more importantly why you want to do investment banking

Question 1
How do you value a firm? What is the discount rate?
It was a standard procedure. The process involved psychometric tests, and hire vue, then assestment centre. Didn't pass the hire vue stage. There's nothing else I can add about the interview process.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself, tell me about a time you had to handle stress, what is your biggest achievement?
First was a hirevue. That is typical behaviors. After that, you will move onto a 20 or 30 minute phone screen. A couple technicals and just running through your resume. Lastly, you will have the superday.
