I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at UBS in Sept 2023
Interview
After getting through the mind numbing aptitude tests, you are told to prerecord a video interview. This is easy but the problem is that you will be sat on the wayside waiting months for a response, only to be sent an automated reply from a robot.
There is a reason for this, and that is that they never actually hire from this pool of applicants. They fill their graduate programmes with pre-selected people that have already interned at the firm or another bank that is similar. If you haven't done work experience as a know nothing 17/18 year old through family connections, or you aren't a brainwashed Oxbridge graduate, then it's already too late.

2 online tests both 20 questions with time constraint, one numeric which requires you to look at charts and choose the right figures, and one true false which require to read paragraphs and choose if the statement is right or not, then interview
Very nice they were very friendly and professional. The questions were fair and they asked plenty of questions to make you feel at ease. It was a great experience and they even provide feedback at the end.
