I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at UBS
Interview
One round, enjoyable conversation with two interviewers. Discussed about how I managed my portfolio and chat about how our risk appetite is different. Overall enjoyed it and looking forward to it
Fairly straightforward working through seniority in team. First round was a Zoom interview with juniors and hiring manager, followed by in person interview and third round with MD over zoom also.

Smooth process with very gentle people. Had the opportunity to ask questions and find out more about the role and people who work in the department. Was not too difficult, but many technical questions have been asked. Make sure to polish your bachelor courses notes.
