Good process, fair questions, standard quant type questions on probability. Interviewer was very fair and friendly, and there was no desire to ask extraordinarily tricky questions. Overall, very streamlined and efficient process.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UBS (Varsavia, Masovia) in Aug 2024
Interview
First interview with questions on SQL and Python, as well as standard mathematics questions (CLT, Black-Scholes, some puzzles). Nothing spectacular, but you need to be prepared. On the mathematics side, the questions were tricky, with some common problems to solve, but it’s still difficult to tackle an unfamiliar problem under pressure in front of people you’ve just met.
They asked me about regression, time series analysis and statistics. The interview was held for 25 mins. The knowledge about finance market is important. Overall interview was okayish. The mode of interview was online
