I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (Dallas, TX) in Jul 2013
Interview
There were 3 rounds of interview. Some were 1:1 but most were 2:1. Each time I went in for an interview I was there for about 1.5-2 hours. There were lots of fit questions and some technical questions, but nothing too crazy. Lots of questions about UBS Private Wealth Management and why they are different from other PWM shops.
