applied beginning of march. non-diverse + semi-target and got a weird automated email today that said "We found your profile interesting, and have shared it with the hiring manager who’s currently reviewing your application." not sure if this means anything. networked + had referral from MD
is this before or after the assessment?
after
never took an assessment, but i applied for a soph program last year and (i think?) i took one so maybe it's the same
I got this too. Wondering the same
I got this too, target and diversity. I had two referrals as well I’m so confused.
Are you applying to North America or EMEA?
I got this too. Target and diversity, but didn't do the any programs. I'm also working there for 2023 summer but in a dif location and division
First round or superday after completing Sonru video interview?
Have you recieved Sonru?
Is the Sonru video interview supposed to come right after the online tests?
No, I've heard that the Sonru is selective and is a first round. If you do well in Sonru, you go right to superday. I've heard superdays will start in April. I haven't gotten Sonru yet though, still waiting to find out if I am going to get one.
How much did you guys network
1 analyst 1 md
What happens if we absolutely bombed the Sonru but have a referral? Will the referral override it and maybe will we get a first round or phone screen? Since Sonru doesn't let u rerecord I know I absolutely bombed like 3/5 questions because I had issues
Not sure I can speak to your exact question, but would you mind sharing whether or not there were any technicals on the Sonru? Or if you might share your questions as well?
No technicals. Just a market-awareness question and all behaviorals.
same here idk what to expect
Think I bombed the Sonru as well. Does anyone have any insight on if you can make it to superday with maybe not as good Sonru if you have good referrals and also were in first round of Sonrus?
Would you mind sharing questions/are they the same for every candidate?
Didn't get the assessment for some reason
Now UBS is buying CS will this year’s recruiting process get delayed or even cut down the headcount? So anxious rtn UBS is literally the bank I put so much time and effort into networking.
Definitely a reduction in SA headcount and probably reduction in full-time return offers for junior SAs.
EMEA or North America?
NAM
How many people have gotten Sonru already?
Have you gotten it? I haven't
me neither
I did network there, NT ND. I am hoping that there is a second round of sonrus
I got the Sonru and I just want to die. I failed it. Literally I got cut off by the timer and didn't even answer the last question properly. I'm so upset at myself because 1) I had two referrals and haven't had this much traction at any other bank 2) my mentor that I look up to so much worked at UBS, and I want to get into UBS so so so badly because of that. The worst thing is that I KNOW I can do better because I've already gotten an offer at a boutique which is known for having a really technical interview process!! But I would take a UBS offer over that boutique in a heartbeat. Idk what to do anymore
At least you have the boutique offer. Stuff happens, don't stress too much over it
Would you mind sharing questions/are they the same for every candidate?
Just got Sonru
For which group?
Does UBS only have an application to NY office? Thats what i saw on the website.
An upperclassman who got non-NYC UBS office said that they applied later in May to that office, so maybe they open up apps for satellite offices later in the season
Thanks
Did the Online Test thing a few days ago, how long did it take for you guys to get the sonru? Thanks
Is equity research not hiring at all? Can't see it on their website. Did they already close or have apps not opened yet?
Does anyone receive spd invitation?
I haven’t heard anything yet. Did you?
No, me neither
Heard back today for superday next week!
Did you get Sonru 3/15? and when'd you submit?
is it in person or virtual?
R u diversity?
Just finished hirevue. These questions are unexpected and hard. Think I blew it I have no idea what I was talking about. Wish me luck.
Was it very technical heavy?
All behavioral and market, no technicals
What were the questions like ?
How much did you network
A lot
do u mind pm me w the questions?
Just got sonru for SF- has anyone done It?
Just got sonru for SF- has anyone done It?
Did anyone received assessment/sonru for S&T or Quant role?
Is there any other forum or thread for this.
How long do people usually expect to wait for Sonru after finishing these assessments?
Anyone apply to SF/Tech and get a Sonru? Pm if so.
Just got a hirevue for next week-- anyone done it yet and have any details?
Superday* not hirevue
diversity?
Did anyone that’s gotten a superday invite get a separate email that their application was under review a couple days after submitting their Sonru?
Hey, if possible, would you mind PM the Sonru questions? Thanks a lot!
I applied to both NY and SF office but only got Sonru for SF so far. Was just wondering if anyone non-diversity has gotten Sonru for NY office yet? Thanks.
diversity from a target school, also only received SF.
Does anyone know how long it takes for UBS to get back to us after turning in the sonru?
Have the same question
Deadline for Sonru was April 4th for me so could be that they come out then
Is Sonru given to only selected candidates or automatically everyone gets it? Is is still going out?
Pretty sure HR processes them because I sent two apps —NY and SF—and got SF, where my school might be a target?
I see, I did mine early last week but heard nothing yet, over a week now
anyone have any info/timeline on Houston?
Have emails been going through for you guys, I'm using the correct format but don't think they are working
I got similar problems but a good amount does go through, it is just the response rate is extremely low
For anyone who did the SD today, do you know when we'll hear back?
Today was diversity right?
I'm not sure if it was entirely was but I am a diverse candidate
Anyone know what to expect from superday?
Anyone know whether they'll send out more Sonrus? I'm target, non diverse and know a few people who already got Sonrus
Anyone know when non-diversity SD will come out? Completed sonru over a week ago and haven't heard anything
waiting on it too - lmk if u get info
Anyone know how long until your UBS offer expires?
HR said for me a week but you could potentially ask for an extension
Did anyone get another interview after the Superday or was that just me?
I got my offer an hour after the superday
oh damn congrats!
Is this NY or SF?
Did any diverse people get an offer or a rejection yet? I interviewed Thursday and I am still waiting on a response.
Just got sonru yesterday. I am a little nervous but is networking important at UBS? If I do decently on the Stonru would I get a spd without networking?
Are u diversity?
Yes but I didn’t apply through a diversity program
When is the SD for SF?
Bumping up this one. Monkey want SF superday, monkey want offer
is sonru out for non-target NY?
Yeah I think so. Non-target and got one
When did you get it and r u diverse?
am i right in assuming everyone gets a Sonru? or nah
You're wrong. Bunch of well-qualified people from my target applied and didn't get anything. So it could be argued that it is similar to getting 1R.
No, not everyone
Have non diversity candidates been given superdays yet?
Got my sonru on april 13 and completed it on april 16 (it was due on the 20th). Anyone know how long it takes for them to review it and get back to you? Really hoping I get a super day
i completed mine on the 29th and haven’t heard anything yet
Not sure completed mine on april 14th, hopefully we hear this week.
R u non target?
Any non-core, non-diversity candidates that got the Sonru?
non-target, non-diversity, had 4 phone calls w associates in March thought they went well but haven't gotten Sonru or anything. Don't know if I should call it an L or not yet.
Nope
Anyone heard back for UBS SF?
Nope
Did you do the sonru or did you have first round call?
following. curious about SF process
BUMP—submitted HV two weeks ago. No response yet
Anyone hear back from the 13th April SD?
Anyone complete the SF Sonru? If so can you please PM the questions?
When should you hear back from the Sonru for the SD for S&T? Is it already out?
I got it yesterday
Well everything points out that SDs will be sent after the applications close on May 1st. Dude if I get a SD Imma bomb my finals dawg
wdym i thought people already had superdays?
The superdays have been diversity. Non-diversity afaik haven't been sent
Did anyone hear back from doing sonru for SF?
Yeah got a first round phone interview with SF but haven't heard back for a week and a half.
Read in a discord someone who said they were non-diversity and received a superday invite for this week on Monday. Hopefully they do multiple rounds(?).
deleted
Bump - any updates
Anyone been rejected for NYC?
There have been people with non-diversity non-target offers already. No idea if they are doing another round.
I fit this profile so obviously I hope they do more rounds, but I’d be super surprised if they did only one round of non-diversity when based on other pages there were 3-4 superdays for diversity alone.
Any more Sonrus to go out?
I just got one today
IB NY?
ANy one hear back for SF?
They are either slow with their process or we all got dinged.
deleted
superday 5/5, haven't heard anything though
Yeah according to someone in the discord for the subreddit r/FinancialCareers HR confirmed to them that hiring/superdays/interviews for IBD are 100% wrapped up.
For NY or SF?
Unclear, but if they're only referring to one I would assume NY
how long does it take to normally hear back regarding superday invite after completing the SONRU? does anyone know
Haven’t heard anything till this point lol guess I’ll just wait
It took me 2.5 weeks
Does anyone know how long it takes to hear back after superday?
deleted
SF?
UBS is completely done with NYC. They might recruit again in the Fall, depending on if CS integration plans change. Source : HR and alums.
Just got superday for SF
congrats, you'll do great
Thank you!! Big congrats on the offer
Just got an offer for UBS TMT in SF, superday 5/5 and heard back 5/8
so proud of you. are you going to accept?
Most likely yes, just a bit worried about what the Credit Suisse acquisition is going to do to FT offers
Has anyone who did sonru two weeks ago heard anything
I just got a Sonru invite for an internship in the APAC region. I already bombed one HireVue with a different bank so I was wondering if anyone could give me tips on how not to mess the Sonru up.
Any updates on UBS wealth management summer analyst for London? Did my sonru 5 weeks ago but no updates yet
did mine for off-cycle IB London 2 weeks ago and also have not heard back.
Any updates on if there have been superday's for new 2024 SA additions?
Completed Sonru a week ago, did not hear back yet
^^any updates
bump
Had VI but not from sonru. No updates yet.
Was it over zoom or something similar to Sonru? And did you do Sonru first before that?
