Be sure to avoid obvious questions that would be very easy for you to answer through simple research. For example, avoid questions like "How many years has Morgan Stanley been around." You should already know the answer to this question from your pre-interview research.

With the right amount of preparation, you could think of dozens of appropriate and helpful questions to show the decision-makers that you are interested in the job and engaged in the interview process. Going into your HireVue interview with insightful questions will show Morgan Stanley's decision-makers that you have put thought and care into your interview prep.

There are endless topics to approach when asking questions at the end of a HireVue interview. It's essential, however, to remain on topic and professional. Consider asking questions related to:

- The job and your day-to-day activities
- The team/department you will be joining
- The training and tools you will receive
- The departments' performance expectations
- The firm/department's short or long-term goals and objectives

The average HireVue interview takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. This one-way video interview typically includes 3-5 questions. Depending on the HireVue parameters set by Morgan Stanley, the asynchronous interview platform will generally give you 30 seconds to prepare a response and up to 2 minutes to answer each question. It's important to note that HireVue stops recording as soon as your time limit is up, so it's better to run under time than overtime.
