is UBS's insight scheme division specific? do we have to choose a division??

the comp question asks why we are best suited to this division but i didnt think i'd chosen a division...


I had this problem too, I took it to mean "Why did you choose UBS Insights and why are you suitable?"
if you see you can select an alternative division somewhere in the ubs application page!
i just assumed it was the main!

I haven't done my RBS app yet but I'm pretty sure I read a few pages back that people were complaining about how hard the RBS tests were? I can't comment though.

Apparently it's really hard but people have been saying it has a relatively low pass mark.

Horrible test took it 5mins ago. I generally hate those IQ pattern style questions so if you enjoy them, it might be a breeze.

Anyone else here get an AC invite for MS?

RBS tests have really low pass marks because they are by and far the hardest of any numerical/logicals around.

MS AC? I applied 2 weeks ago - when should I get a phone interview?

Is it the SHL Logical test

Nope, it's by a company called TalentQ or something along that lines. The thing about the test is it's not timed as a whole but each question has a 75 second timer and there are 14 options to choose your answer from.

No :frown: I guess I will get rejected. How did you find out about your AC and when?

Anyone else find themselves checking emails more than is healthy? I don't even know why I do it as my emails get pushed to me instantly.

RBS logical gave me a headache. JSC second round though, preparing myself to be humiliated over the telephone.

I haven't heard anything from MS/Nomura either and applied 3 weeks ago. Not worried yet, but I'd quite like a chance at MS as it seemed like a good place to work at from the presentation.

I'm pretty sure they have multiple dates for AC so I wouldn't be too worried just yet.

Had my phone interview yesterday evening and received the AC invite today afternoon....I was quite impressed with how fast they got back to me.
What does everyone else put for the "Degree Result" part of your university education? I've been typing that I haven't yet completed any modules nor been predicted any grades, but should I just have put 2:1 or 1:1 predicted anyway?
