      What are we looking out for?

      You don’t have to have a finance or business degree to apply to one of our programs. We want students who follow the news and the impact these events have on the markets with curiosity. The ability to work in a fast-paced environment but still deliver thoughtful solutions to complex problems is key. UBS is a great place to work and we want people who see challenges as opportunities and have a desire to grow and develop.
