Morgan Stanley ER 2026

Has anyone heard back from R1 last week? How long does it take for the team to get back to you regarding next steps? The interviewer told me I was a solid candidate and a great fit, but I haven't heard back.

Based on the most helpful WSO content, timelines for hearing back from Morgan Stanley after interviews can vary depending on the role and region. For example, in the context of Morgan Stanley's Equity Research Junior Associate Program or other similar roles, candidates have reported waiting anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks after their interviews to hear back about next steps.

If the interviewer mentioned you were a strong candidate, that's a positive sign. However, delays can occur due to internal processes or the volume of candidates being reviewed. If it's been over two weeks, it might be worth sending a polite follow-up email to the recruiter or HR contact to inquire about your application status.

Havn’t heard back at all. I had a very similar interview. Very calm, very conversational. You go target?
