Connect call

Is there a connect call held at Morgan Stanley for new joiners (before they join) with their peers/managers while the background check is going on? What can I expect in such a call?

You may be introduced to the company's culture, values, and mission. You'll have the opportunity to ask questions about your role, the team, and the company. Be prepared to ask questions about your role, the team dynamics, and any specific concerns you may have.

Yes, it's common for Morgan Stanley to conduct a "connect call" with new hires before their official start date. This call usually occurs while the background check is in progress
