I was wondering if anyone else applied to Morgan Stanley Public Finance for the 2021 cycle - wanted to see where everyone's progress is. I submitted the HireVue right when it come out but haven't heard anything since.

confirmed
Applied back in May, just got an invitation for a first round for tomorrow. Anyone have any insight into the process or want to share their experience?
Did you network at all for a first-round?
Yes, I networked with alumni.
How'd it go?
Anyone who had a first-round hear anything back yet/insight/updates?
Anyone hear anything after first rounds yet?
Just got superday invite, had my first-round at the beginning of September. Anyone else?
Same, have mine on Friday. What day is yours?
Mine's on Friday too. You a target or non-target?
Just had my superday. Said we'd here back 1-2 weeks I think. Anyone else?
Lol, I'm assuming you were one of the people in the waiting area. How'd you think you did?
Yeah lol. I think it went well, not trying to jinx it haha, wbu? Also was this the only batch of superdays or did others get interviewed to at other times you think? Also how many interviews did you have today?
Yeah I counted ~10-12 people in the waiting area, and I heard it was around the same amount of spots last year, which leads me to think either there are less spots this year or there were multiple superday. I had 4 too.
Nice! Well I'll let you know if I hear anything back, and good luck!
Can confirm historically that there are multiple rounds of super days.
Anybody hear back yet after last Friday's superday or have any insight? A lot of people say you typically hear back in 2-3 days tops if you got the offer, anyone care to elaborate?
Just got the call earlier today...rejected!
I'm assuming offers should be coming out soon
Sorry to hear that, I haven't heard anything yet
Anyone hear anything yet since 10/2/2020 superday? I got a call from HR earlier this week saying that they wanted to keep me updated and that they're still considering my candidacy. Any insight?
I know this was a year ago, but did you get the offer? If yes, when did you find out?
No offer, got the call after two weeks
Did you get an offer? I had a superday today and curious of the timeline
