I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at UBS (Hong Kong) in Dec 2014
Interview
It was quite friendly. It took 2 rounds, around 1 and half month.It took me 2 round. The first round was a phone interview. Because he was an alumni, so we went through detailed corporate finance projects and how I did it. For the final round, I was first asked the typical questions of why banking, why UBS. And then around a good chunk of the technical questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Walk me through a depreciation of 10 dollar. Recent news in the financial market. What's your view on interest rate. DCF.
Informal and 50/50 split between behavioral and technical. Consisted of 4 phone calls with various members of the team, starting with director, and then Senior Associate, and then Analyst for the more technical interview.
Standard technicals, but not the best culturally. Asked to walk through M&A transaction, as well as mental math. Asked to talk to previous experiences, particularly past technical experience. Very very serious.

2 rounds with one senior and one junior, overall questions are general.
Need some understanding on the sector to be covered. And also some technical questions.
But the chemistry did not went well.
