Interviewed Dec 2010 in City of London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
A paper-based test comes first, covers programming, probability and stochastic calculus.
Then get interviewed by two professionals, each 40 minutes. Questions are all technical or brainteasers, no behavourial ones.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in City of London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
took a numerical test consisting of 40 questions, had to finish in 35min. And then invited to a face-to-face interview with a line manager from Operations. Asked basic questions like: Why IB, Why UBS, Why Operations. and I prepared well for those questions.
And then they asked some basic competency questions. I would say have a look at the UBS website, under the interview preparation section, they have actually listed the 7 Core Competencies that they are looking for. just prepare yourself according to that list. they won't ask a lot of unexpected questions. the interview was only 30 minutes.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in City of London, England (United Kingdom) (took 3 days)
This was a fairly short interview process for me and I was honestly expecting ditto be drawn out much longer. I had 3 interviews consisting of 2 phone and one face to face over the span of three days. All lasted for approximately an hour. As my role was a simple graduate position, they were simply looking for a grounded understanding in the markets so this most likely contributed to me not running the gauntlet.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in City of London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
The first round was a 90 minutes paper-based technical exam. Totally 10 questions. Had to write the answers on paper. Questions were from three categories: 1) operation system knowledge - concepts of IPC, unix text tools (awk, sed, egrep), sections of a loaded process, etc; 2) C++/STL code review - predict program output, find out bugs; 3) TCP/IP questions - compare TCP and UDP.
Basically the questions are not hard. However, the knowledge range is relatively wide.
