The process took 3 months. I interviewed at UBS (Hongkong) in Dec 2015
Interview
Online application, First round face-to-face interview, Superday (group discussion, apt test, individual presentation, individual interview)
The apt test is a numerical test, similar to the one that was done in the first stage (online application).
The individual presentation and group discussion are based on two different topics.
For the presentation, basically about analyzing a firm by SWOT analysis and proposing a strategy.
For the group discussion, its about how to allocate cost to different projects, and come up with a consensus which combination of plans is the best to go.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most of the questions in individual interview are behavioural based and related to CV.
e.g. Tell me about a time when you made a mistake.
The process consisted of a Hirevue type interview, then superday with mix of standard technicals with more senior members of the team, had to discuss company / news I found interesting
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard technical questions, behavioral with more senior bankers
Applied and got an email for a HireVue. They gave 7 days to complete it. It was very straightforward and easy. Just like other HireVues and not too many questions. Not the hardest questions in the world but not the easiest. Just an average experience.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at UBS in Sep 2025
Interview
Standard technical questions, tell me about yourself, where you see yourself in 5 years, pitch a stock, walk through a deal you’ve done, time to ask them questions. Some of the ppl can obviously look checked out so don’t take it personally.
