Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 3 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Morgan Stanley (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di gen 2009
Colloquio
Many calls and emails earned me a lunch with the hiring manager. Talked over experience and book of business. Major interest in how many accounts I could bring to Morgan. Very confusing bonus program presented on a napkin. Never would put anything in writing until hired. Many repeat phone calls before granted second interview and was offered the job. Managers very busy and spend most time with top producers leaving new people to flounder. Helps to be a good looking woman to get hired and helped.

The interview process for finance roles is typically structured and competency-based, with a strong emphasis on technical knowledge and analytical ability. Candidates can expect case studies, scenario-based questions, and discussions around market awareness, financial modeling, or client relationship skills. Employers also look for clear communication, professionalism, and the ability to demonstrate ethical decision-making under pressure.
