I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BlackRock (New York, NY)
Interview
Applied through campus recruiting portal and completed a HireVue interview as well as a 30-minute video interview before being invited to the New York office for a superday. Some of the people I met with were friendly, but much of the process felt very impersonal and detached. I rarely spoke with an actual recruiter; most of it was automated. I never got reimbursed for the $100+ worth of cabs that I had to use to go between the office and the airport, despite filling out the proper form and going through the correct channels. Communication was not great, which surprised me for such a highly regarded company.

Question 1
Mostly resume walkthrough, why you're interested in that role, what do you think of the markets right now, etc.
Too long, 5 rounds not including a recruiter screen and one panel interview with 2 people. Normal interviews but ridiculous process and the pay is not great for a trillion dollar company.
One online interview and three rounds of hirevue until an assessment centre in the offices and coding exam if applying to engineer roles in London. The interview was quite easy and straightforward; really happy with the results
I applied online. I interviewed at BlackRock (Seattle, WA)
Interview
1st round was online with 2 interviewers and 2nd round was in person with 2 other interviewers. Interview was to find out fit with the team. I was asked on financial knowledge as well as technical knowledge.
