I applied online. I interviewed at UBS (Singapore) in Jul 2022
Interview
Started with the business round interview, followed by one with HR. Can't quite recall much of it, except that the HR Recruiter was very pleasant to work with. Positive experience overall.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at UBS (Hyderābād) in Sep 2025
Interview
It was smooth and wonderful, the best interview I had so far. It typically consists of four rounds. The first is technical assessment followed by TR1, TR2 and the HR round
Zuerst normale Fragen wie "Was sind deine besten Kurse im Studium?" oder "Was sind deine Stärken" und danach mehr technische Fragen zu Investments, Bilanzen und Banking allgemein. Insgesamt war mein Eindruck sehr positiv.
The process began with a Pre-Placement Talk, followed by an online assessment on HackerRank, consisting of 30 MCQs (15 technical and 15 aptitude) and one coding question. I solved the coding problem completely and most MCQs, which helped me get shortlisted among 209 students. The technical interview lasted about 45 minutes and covered my resume projects (SQL-based and ML), Java OOPs concepts, and basic DSA questions. Despite missing one SQL query and not knowing the singleton class, I tackled most questions confidently. The HR round was relaxed, focusing on personal background and interests.

Question 1
There is a ring with each node labeled from 1 to m. Starting from node 1. We were also given an
array of nodes to travel of size n and a time time array which tells the required time to go to any
adj node of size m. We can travel clockwise as well as anti-clockwise. We need to find the
minimum time required to visit all nodes.
Eg.
N = 4
NextNodeToVisit = [2, 3, 1, 3]
M = 3
TimeToMove = [1, 4, 2]
Initially we are standing at 1
