ok - I apologise in advance as this is a 'how long is a piece of string' question.
I've been offered a good contract at morgan stanley - everything looks really good about it - role/people/work (yes I'm aware of the cost cutting issues with MS and also IB in general, cost cutting etc).
Worry is - my notice period at start of may will go up to 12 weeks - currently is 1 week.. has anyone had experience of how long it takes MS to reference candidates?
- I know I will pass however I've had delays with other banks taking a month or two to take up references to do credit/ref checks - seems unreal length of time as I don't want to give a weeks notice and then wait 8 weeks on 'le bench' .
Agency is chasing this info for me with MS however thought I'd see if anyone had done this before and what a typical time was or if it could be accelerated in any way (I'm boringly simple - not even a speeding ticket!)
