I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UBS (Pune) in Jul 2015
Interview
Was directly called for a F2F interview with 2 people. They make you wait in the waiting lounge of the hotel where the interview is held.
People who finished their interviews before you keep coming periodically to this lounge. So does the neatly dressed HR to let them know one after the ther that "the team would contact her/him later". On this particular day, almost all of them were made to go away. Needless to say it was a polite way of saying no.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Tell us about yourself.
2. Let's discuss last 3 of the projects you have worked on.
3. What was the architecture like? Draw the architecture layers (or just blocks) and specify the corresponding technologies used to implement them. Grilled completely on this question.
4. Some standard Java questions like "how does a HashMap work", "Java synchronization mechanisms including CyclicBarrier and CountdownLatch"
5. Last 4-5 minutes were kept for the candidate to ask questions.
Total interview duration - 1 hour 15 minutes. Verdict - No offer
It was organised and smooth. Both HR and hiring department made clear process. I was able to understand the job role and was to be perform the interview well. Hiring team interview was more like a discussion and it was nice.

About the daily challenges
I applied online. I interviewed at UBS (Krakowiany) in Apr 2026
Interview
there were two rounds. One was hackerrank. This varies based on role. Once I had full-stack Java plus React and another I had Java plus SQL. 2nd round was on teams, they focused on low-level design implementation
The process was easy and straight forward. There were no difficult questions and it was more about getting to know the personality. Various rounds of interviews with different employees and a lot of coffee chats. Focused more on personality fit rather than on qualifications.
