UBS I am going through the interview process with UBS. I applied for a financial advising position. I have had three interviews, completed the background check, and they asked me about my termination from last job, fired from mortgage company due to mortgage rates increasing. Last contact was a week ago. Since my first interview it’s been about a month and a half. Is this normal for their hiring process? Is this a good or bad sign?

You were fired because rates increased? Or do you mean laid off?? Financial firms are starting a hiring freeze so wouldnt be surprised if they told you that. But i think its more to do about how you presented your termination. A wk ago isnt bad, follow up if you have doubts???

It would be nice to find someone, but have it be platonic (any gender/sex). It’s weird, I know. It’s hard to articulate as well. Can anyone relate? 😭😭
