I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at UBS (London, England) in Jan 2021
Interview
Absolute grilling over the phone. Definitely be prepared and don't talk about projects which you don't know a lot about. In my interview, I mentioned one and the interviewer actually had worked on the project!! I have to say that it was very professional and they did give a good indication of what the role would entail.

Question 1
How did your economic studies lead you to apply for this role, how would you say you have already applied them in a business environment?
The interview process was smooth and efficient. It included an initial HR screening to review my qualifications, a technical assessment to test my skills, and a final interview with the hiring manager to discuss.
After submitting my online application, I waited approximately two weeks before being invited to the first-stage task assignment (R1). This was followed by a video interview (R2), an in-person office interview (R3), and finally an HR interview (R4). The entire recruitment process took around five weeks to complete from application to final stage.

I applied through university. I interviewed at UBS (Houston, TX) in Feb 2026
Interview
Very laid back interview. Just walked through my resume, why asset management, and overall just behaviorals. There were zero technical questions, and the interviewer was more curious about my leadership, experiences specifically from my previous internship.
