I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at UBS (Fort Worth, TX) in Oct 2013
Interview
Through my network I was referred to the branch manager. I did my interview and was told that he wanted to hire me. I then took an assessment exam that was identical to Morgan Stanley's test. After that there was a business plan assessment (personal). I passed all exams and after a while an offer letter was produced.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to be a financial advisor personally? Is it the money? Do you like numbers? What is it?
Pretty chill. One phone screening and a 45 minute interview. The interview was with two people who took turns asking me about my resume, why I wanted the job, and then I spent about ten minutes asking them questions.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (Weehawken, NJ)
Interview
Two in person 45 min interview (same day) The interviewers seem to be intimidating on purpose and will comment of your responses immediately. It felt disrespectful. The process was somewhat disorganized and the second guy I interviewed with didn’t even know I was coming in. Overall not very welcoming or friendly
Just be prepared and friendly. Know what you are talking about. Ask questions, be confident in yourself project your voice. Talk about your experiences and how it shaped you to become a better person.
