I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UBS in Apr 2010
Interview
Multiple interviewers, not particularly structured interview outside of this however. I believe they did not have a set timeline in mind for the role, but it was a strange interview without any behavioral questions or really any questions of all besides going over the role and my background with them asking for further info on a few points but not at all what I expected.
All the interviewers seemed like really good potential co-workers however, I just think this particular role was a bit unusual and therefore their knowledge in how they could fill it might be less than a typical UBS job interview- hence I thought it was easy in my overall impression, but that I was not particularly good at this easy interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Types of potential risk in an asset portfolio, asking for more but not giving much assistance as to what type of more might be intended by the vaguely worded question.
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 college or 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.
