I applied online. I interviewed at UBS (Hong Kong) in Dec 2013
Interview
Applied online and received a request for Phone Interview. Interview lasted around 45 minutes and had a lot of the typical questions expected: Why UBS, Ops, Financial News, Where do you see yourself in 5 yrs, Strength/Weakness, Teamwork Qs; I don't think it's too hard to prepare for, just know the UBS culture & Ops well.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at UBS (Hong Kong) in Jul 2013
Interview
I interviewed with 6 team members including head of portfolio trading for almost 3 hours. Each person asked different questions, and the head even asked me skiing, and the trader from India asked me Indian Energy... So it`s kind of random, but it was based mainly on my resume.
