Question 1
How will you handle moving to Columbus knowing only your girlfriend?
I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (Atlanta, GA) in Jun 2014
Interview
Met with the Senior Vice President and First Vice President to discuss a potential position. I knew them both well before the process and the interview was light and direct. Very personable and enjoyable people to be around. I did not have any technical or analytical questions to answer. It was a positive experience and something that I would recommend for some one who has no problem with risk or a good group of wealthy contacts.
