I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (London, England) in Dec 2015
Interview
Standard online application, with standard online tests following. I heard back from UBS 2 days later asking for me to complete a telephone interview. Interview was competency based and focused on normal questions such as why UBS, when have you show leadership, when have you missed a deadline etc. etc. They said they would reply in 2-3 weeks but never got back to me and just emailed to say position was full.
