hey guys,
im a soph and i just heard back from Morgan Stanley Smith Barney's branch internship program(?) for a first round interview
from my research, it basically seems like a wealth management internship?
does anyone know much else about it?
also, will the first round interview be mostly fit or technicals as well? basically wondering how the interview will be structured
thanks for your help!

Congrats on getting the interview. Since you're a sophomore, I would expect the interview to be mostly fit/behavioral. To impress, keep up with the markets and be ready to speak intelligently about them. Check the Interview Prep section of the Morgan Stanley website (Careers -> University Programs -> Interview Preparation) for tips and sample questions. If it's a private wealth management program, I would expect them to give you questions on your selling ability, communication skills, and market knowledge. Good luck.
Is this a branch is major city (ie Chicago, San Fran, NYC)? Normally, I would expect behavioral vs. technical and really depends on FIT since most PWM groups don't have a formal internship program. Good luck
No technical Only behavioral, why are you interested, do you know what we do, what are your opinions on the market? (possibly but for a sophomore, im not too sure) Just look good, speak well and impress. You won't learn much but its a decent opp to meet and understand a few things about the industry (retail).
Has anyone that interviewed for this position heard back? Does anyone know when they are expected to hear back? Thanks
jik1337, when did you have your interviewed? I'm waiting too. does anyone know when the super day for MSSM summer branch going to be? thanks
I don't believe they have superdays do they?
I think they do.
i inteviewed towards the beginning of the month. I am guessing they are waiting until they do all thier first round interviews before they make a final decesions. Did they tell you when you should here by they told me it would be a couple weeks and i guess I am coming up on a couple weeks now
i interviewed towards the beginning of the month, before the deadline even passed. I hope they let me know their decision eventually rather than leave me hanging.
yeah i still havent heard back either-its nice to know you guys are in the same boat though! please let us all know if you hear back and i'll do the same!
It will be mainly behaviorals and they will get back to you within two weeks. I did this program in the summer of 2008. keep up to date on wsj.com and even dealbreaker.com.
gwm, so how does it work after the first round? is there a super day or do you automatically get assigned a place?
