I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (New York, NY) in Feb 2018
Interview
Straightforward interview process. Resume screening, video process interview and a final round in NY. Interviewed with several people and had a great experience. I was really impressed throughout the whole process.
The process consisted of a Hirevue type interview, then superday with mix of standard technicals with more senior members of the team, had to discuss company / news I found interesting
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard technical questions, behavioral with more senior bankers
Applied and got an email for a HireVue. They gave 7 days to complete it. It was very straightforward and easy. Just like other HireVues and not too many questions. Not the hardest questions in the world but not the easiest. Just an average experience.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at UBS in Sep 2025
Interview
Standard technical questions, tell me about yourself, where you see yourself in 5 years, pitch a stock, walk through a deal you’ve done, time to ask them questions. Some of the ppl can obviously look checked out so don’t take it personally.
