Interviewed Aug 2010 (took 3 weeks)
I worked in London as part of the Mountbatten Institute exchange program. I had to network like crazy in order to find a role in the states after my internship ended. I interviewed with the manager of the US team by phone, then I interviewed with two other people of the US time - also over the phone. After that, I met with the manager of the London team (since I was working out of London at the time). After I had aced those I was basically hired.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 2 weeks)
Fast review process after applications closed. Took around a week before I heard back. Was interviewed within the week, had to also take a quantitative and logic test. The interview consisted of slightly technical questions, but all very basic. Based on indirect feedback, I was not accepted due to my quantitative scores. Based on this and past experiences with UBS, a bad score on the quant test (logic is quite easy) will definitely lead to a "No", and it is almost never compensated by your good interview, if you do manage to get one at all after the test.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Houston, TX (took a day)
The communications and interview set up with the company were very professional. The interview was a 30 minute interview. They started out asking about myself and my resume and what classes I liked and didn't like in college. Then they went on to ask technical questions. They were helpful and explained if I didn't get an answer completely right. They also did a great job of explaining their roles at UBS and why they liked their jobs.
