I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (New York, NY) in Sep 2024
Interview
My UBS interview process started with an online assessment, followed by a HireVue interview. After that, I was invited to three back-to-back Zoom interviews, each focused on a different area: one covered my views on the markets and investing, another tested my technical finance and valuation knowledge, and the last was centered on behavioral questions and fit. Overall, the process was thorough and gave me the chance to show both my technical abilities and how I think about markets and teamwork.

I applied online. I interviewed at UBS (London, England)
Interview
I have been through 2 rounds with one hiring manager in New York and another one in London. All round behaviour and competency questions. Not very difficult but I can see that inside the UBS. There isn’t a clear path for this role. After two rounds, they ghosted me. I follow up in month time they said still in first round then ghosted me

Why do you want to work on the sell side.
No technicals. More of a conversation interview to see if you can hold a conversation and not be awkward. Each interview was 30 minutes each. Completed four different interviews which were all members of the team.
