Interview
I applied through my online via my schools web portal the process in itself took about a month, they reached out 2 weeks after my application via phone and asked some preliminary questions mostly centered around my interest in UBS my studies, hobbies and what I thought about the market at the time. At the end of the call the recruiter asked me to come in for a 1:1 and I met with someone from the department I would be working with and met some of the other individuals in that office. I received an offer maybe a week or so later and had to come in for fingerprints/drug test.
