So i interviewed with MS SA IB NYC about more than a week ago first round on campus, and am yet to hear back, so its safe to say I have been rejected.
I know MS has a very annoying policy of leaving people hanging without them ever saying no, but has anyone on this forum ever been actually rejected/dinged by MS (through email or phone)? I am just curious in the slim chance that there might still be hope for me before I receive rejection notification (if they ever do so)

hey, at least you can still say "im in the process with morgan stanley" when other people ask you where you have offers, which you cant say if they reject you
At my school, everyone who got a Super Day got a call on the same day. Sorry for the bad news man, they usually don't communicate bad news.
nope
one VP was nice enough to reject me through my thank you note
Received an email about a week later that coincidently went to spam.
I've gotten a rejection e-mail from them before, but it was for AM, not IB.
I got a voice mail telling me to call them. I called and they said we don't have room for you.
That's pretty cold. Whenever you get a voicemail to call back, you figure it's good news.
If you are uncertain, it's not at all inappropriate to email the HR contact and ask about the status of your application. I hope that helps.
I know how irritating these firms get in recruiting season; there was one time where I got a call a month later after a first round rejecting me, while I already knew the people who got accepted for second rounds 3 weeks prior.
I sent both the interviewer and the HR person emails asking about my status wednesday and am yet to hear back....MS HR is pretty useless if they can't even bother sending a simple rejection email
MS London has rejected me twice for SA, once S&T and once IBD (after 1st rounds).
haha yeah.
I interviewed for IB, Smith Barney and Capital Markets for full-time last semester.
Still haven't heard from Capital Markets yet lol
Got rejection letter from Smith Barney about a month later
Got the offer from IB which surprisingly was very quick in response.
Yes, I once pestered my MS HR contact so much she decided to reject me based on her own experience. Of course the VP of the team (IB, London) also rejected me later!
DOES MORGAN STANLEY SEND REJECTION LETTERS TO EVERYONE (Originally Posted: 11/13/2017)
I interviewed for MS about 3 weeks ago and have not heard back however a person who interviewed on the same day received a rejection last week . Does MS send out rejection letters to everyone or why am I not hearing back?
