At UBS, AI skills are now a condition for landing a job

Starting in 2027, UBS will require graduates and interns applying for roles within its Global Banking and Markets division to demonstrate proficiency in artificial intelligence. Candidates will be expected to explain how they utilize these tools to enhance efficiency and work outcomes during the interview process. This policy reflects a broader trend among major financial institutions, such as Santander, to prioritize technical AI literacy as a core competency for incoming talent.
