They do a numerical assessment - pretty basic algebra, nothing too crazy but definitely some weird questions that will trip you up. Another assessment is a behaviorual - office environment simulation and how you would react in certain situations dealing with team members. All in all, takes about 45 minutes and is really not that bad. Also, these assessments don't have any impact on your application for UBS, it's simply just a data point that they may be able to use in the future if years of data tend to prove something. And for who was asking above - UBS has a diversity program for freshmen in the spring called Tomorrow's Leaders and they have a fast tracked interview process before the normal process even kicks off which is why you may have seen people saying they got offers or interviews already.
Have any of you heard back after the assessments? Gave mine on the 27th. How / when will we know whether we've been selected for a Hirevue / the next steps?
Same. I applied to UBS for PWM last year and in high school, and they were pretty good with giving a prompt rejection lol, so because they haven't now, I assume we're still in the game.
That makes me feel good haha. I just hope they don't interview too late because it gets super difficult to plan for the summer. From what I read some of their interviews happen in November which is quite delayed compared to other programs which finish their recruiting by then.
yep, finished around mid-to-late October (later than usual due to covid obviously). one or two ppl had a November superday but sought out other options
Has anyone heard back for 2021 Summer Sophomore Analyst Program -Global Markets- Sales & Trading?? I applied last month and havent heard back, and on the portal that it says they are still reviewing my app which im guessing i didn't make it?

There was a diversity program with ~40 people in may/june

Yea it was pretty difficult but I think I managed to get all but 1 right.
Don't need any specific examples but could you give me a general insight as to the questions they ask for that assessment?
