I found the job posting on a school website and applied with a resume and cover letter. The wealth management team I interviewed with and ended up working for interviewed me with 3 people. It was a basic walk me through your résumé and experiences interview. They gave insights into job expectations and how the team functions.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (Minneapolis, MN) in Aug 2009
Interview
I went through several face to face interviews. The second required a "public" presentation to several UBS employees. This was intended to simulate a public seminar, questions from the attendees made this a challenging event. The final hurdle was a test. It consisted of lots of math and problem questions. Very challenging and a tight time constraint.

Question 1
The interviews and presentation were pretty standard stuff, but the test was a monster. I'm not sure I was intended to finish. I started estimating when I realized of the time crunch and still left one question unanswered.
