I found a blog that shares the latest OT question types for many companies this year.

Can you send it to me? That would be so helpful. Thank u!

Not UBS but Macquire and Deutsche did send me an email to expect an outcome soon, since they are reviewing my application now.

Not the person you're asking, but in my experience, it's a maximum of two days.

*I assume that by "VI", you mean the HireVue interview invite and not the AC. For the AC invite (which I've not received - but I know people who have), it's two weeks for a review - if you meet the test benchmarks, which are not disclosed.

I’m not the person you asked, but here’s what I know.

The Culture Match is the decisive filter. Even with strong scores, if you’re flagged as “not a match,” you won’t progress.
The OA matters mainly for the AC invite and for deciding which applications get reviewed post-HV. On both tests, you should aim for “extremely fast/accurate” on at least three of four sections, ideally all four. For the difficulty wording, target: “Compared to other participants, it is much easier for you to handle the tasks in this test successfully” on both tests.

A perfect score is best. On the unlimited Inductive Reasoning test, set a floor of 25 correct. Some applicants push past 50, but that demands significant practice time and paid prep resources.

On the verbal test, fewer than 14/18 correct is not competitive.

This is based on my experience and what I’ve seen from peers, but it seems to hold across roles.

ACs out. Successful applicants got the invite roughly 2 weeks after the HV. But there's always hope.
