Coming in to defend why UBS is still a BB. Not after seeing the video
Testament of how disconnected the HR teams are to the business reality.
They don’t have any clue about what we do in IB and they haven’t understood the types of personalities that should be targeted for the job. No wonder why some candidates quit after a few weeks into the job...
HR has been questionable at best at all the firms I’ve worked at — this par for the course. They really should just hire ex-bankers who don’t like the hours, so they can actually have some idea what the job entails.
Favourite part is her being an investment banker but also sitting on the trading floor I think
nice Chinese wall separation.
"Bull or bear? THAT'S the question" I wish I could work with these brilliant people.
They missed the part where UBS lost of the bakeoff to a legitimate BB. Although I guess that was implied by the girl being able to make her yoga class.
At ubs. Can confirm
lmfaooo
Now THIS is a real recruiting video. Notice how exasperated everyone looks and how nobody smiles once.

This video made me hard
Wow, Joe Perella before he left. Pretty wild
Pretty sure it’s not IB related, but does anyone know what UBS’s GTP program is? Is it part of all of their divisions? What is it?
It is their graduate program. 2-3 years analyst program when joining after university where you receive specific training. I think it has been rolled out across various divisions
Makes IB look like jersey shore
What a bunch of clowns.
No wonder they're paid 70 cents on the dollar
Its just a marketing tool. why would they advertise a shitty day at the office.
the only place she could actually do yoga is underneath her desk
