Three rounds of interviews with individual teams and two different hiring managers. Takes about 2+ months to get job offer from management, do the proper background checks and get started.

Question 1
What is your comfortability with problem solving for complex problems?
First applied online, then went into the office for my first interview and chatted with a few FAs. They asked me basic questions about myself and told me about what they specialized in. For the next interview they sent me to another local office where I met with more FAs, I think they were trying to figure out a placement. Finally, I had one last virtual interview with a manager who quizzed me harder. A few days later they called to offer me the job.

Question 1
What are Morgan Stanley's 5 core values? (company research questions)
How do you prioritize tasks? (behavioral questions)
Simple, they were very welcoming and straightforward. I felt comfortable when I got there, but I could tell they wanted someone with more experience than me. It only lasted 30 minutes and they only really wanted to hear me talk about my experiences and asked one behavioral question.
