The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley (New York, NY) in Nov 2011
Interview
It was a academic conference, however, Morgan Stanley was recruiting there. Everyone submitted their resume in the morning, waited for being called in the afternoon based on the competency of their resume. I was called as the last one that day (because I submitted late). Had a one on one technical interview in a conference room. The employer seemed like a senior quant, looked very tired, and had not too much conversation with me. After a very brief self introduction(about twenty seconds), he started to asked me questions. First one was about Brownian motion and reflection theory, the second one was about flipping coins and its probability. I finished the two questions based on his hint. One thing to mention is, the way he solved the problems was really smart.

Question 1
What is the probability of a Brownian motion hit 1 before hitting -2. The Brownian motion starts at 0.
First round online hackerrank test and verbal reasoning. The technical one includes math and coding test, medium level difficulty. Math problems involve questions like linear algebra, basic probability and statistics.
Contacted by HR, 4 rounds in total. 1st round was CV and basic statistics/coding in python. 2nd round was related to martingale/stochastics.3rd round was on SQL and puzzle. 4th was fit check with India head.
