I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morgan Stanley in Oct 2010
Interview
I had 2 phone interviews; questions were on probability, stochastic calculus, C++. Surprisingly, on the second interview I had questions from the same areas as in the first one.

One interview with local manager + interview with global team, that can last up to two hours and has a lot of technical questions of the role, need to be prepared with sql + linux, since this is used all over the firm.
The interview was conducted as a part of a placement drive conducted by placement cell. The interviewers were thorough and very interested in how the problems presented were solved. - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - -
