Process
I applied to a recruiter and secured a phone interview.
The interview focused on deadlocks.
I was asked about how to avoid and detect deadlocks.
The interviewer was very friendly, and the interview flowed smoothly. The questions weren't overly technical, but I believe Morgan Stanley places a significant emphasis on multithreading. Since I'm not very proficient in that area, I don't expect to move forward in the process.
