I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BlackRock (London, England) in Nov 2015
Interview
Application sent off at the beginning of September, simple and quick application form.
Invited to online automated interview over a month later.
I prepared as if it was a real interview, turned out was over preparation. They asked 3 simple questions about Blackrock, University and You.
Questions 30 secs to prepare your answer and 1.5 minutes to answer.
Still waiting to hear.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Blackrock, and the division you have applied for?
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.
