I applied online. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (Montreal, QC) in Jun 2025
Interview
3 rounds, One online screening, then One in person interview where I was asked one medium level dsa question with whiteboarding, then there was another Online interview. The Final online interview was not that good since they were asking more about java language than the actual job, problem solving etc.
