Not in that group but heard it’s fine. Hours aren’t bad but like 15 people spread across 3 states with like 13 of those people in Dallas and Chicago. I have heard there is a VP or SVP, or maybe a couple, who have an overbearing presence in the group and have been somewhat toxic for the culture. Leader a nice enough guy but has his hands in like 80 things so doesn’t do much to build sense of camaraderie amongst team.

I doubt it

Hi Guys,

I have completed my tech interview rounds with UBS and have received email for fitment round.

Can anyone share what happens in this fitment round on interview?
HRs have asked to submit documents even before this fitment round; which seems unusual. Is this normal for UBS and this is how they progress?

Thank you.
