UOB Asset Management interview questions

The interview process consisted of two rounds. Initially, I found the first interviewer to be fairly easy-going, until he asked whether I planned to have children in the future. He tried to justify the question by saying that I am, of course, allowed to have children, but I needed to understand the demands of the role. I still fail to see how personal family planning decisions would impact the quality of my work. However, the concern seemed evident, especially considering they ultimately hired a male candidate. Given UOB’s public commitment to women’s rights and empowerment, it’s disappointing and frankly troubling to encounter such outdated views during the hiring process. It raises questions about whether these biases are influencing hiring decisions. I sincerely hope the company takes a closer look at its recruitment practices to ensure they align with the values it claims to uphold.
