I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (Paris) in Mar 2018
Interview
3 tours dont une premiere epreuve écrite où 2/3 des candidats sont écremés. Les deux tours qui suivent consistent en une série d'entretiens avec les membres de l'équipe midcap à Paris.
Informal and 50/50 split between behavioral and technical. Consisted of 4 phone calls with various members of the team, starting with director, and then Senior Associate, and then Analyst for the more technical interview.
Standard technicals, but not the best culturally. Asked to walk through M&A transaction, as well as mental math. Asked to talk to previous experiences, particularly past technical experience. Very very serious.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mental math IE- a rope burns from two ends at 30 minutes... etc
I applied online. I interviewed at UBS (Hong Kong)
Interview

But the chemistry did not went well.
