I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UBS (New York, NY) in Jan 2018
Interview
Technical questions were asked relating to fixed income, equities,derivatives, time series and empirical methods in finance were tested upon. The process was a two step process which included one round phone interview and 3 back to back in person rounds. I was interviewed by an analyst,associate and the director as well.

Question 1
Questions on time series,empirical methods,derivatives,fixed income, options pricing,stochastic calculus were tested upon.
Lots of modern behavioral questions related to current market knowledge and a little bit of technical knowledge required. Good process overall quite quick turnaround. Would recommend to others looking to start off in finance.
