Question 1
Why apply UBS and why interested in this position.
I applied online. I interviewed at UBS (Zürich) in Oct 2025
Interview
Ho fatto due test online: uno di logica e uno su possibili scenari aziendali. Alla fine ti danno un report per vedere che tipo di persona sei. Poi ho svolto un colloquio con domande da registrare al momento.
Il colloquio era pre-registrato, classico video HireVue. L’invito arriva dopo la presentazione della domanda, screening del CV (lettera non richiesta) e superamento dei test attitudinali (AOL). Sono 7 domande in inglese, 2 min per pensare e 2 min per rispondere, un solo take disponibile

Question 1
