I applied online. I interviewed at BlackRock (London, England)
Interview
Hireview video interview. Asked 2 interview questions in total that were both based on personality. Both questions were easy and straightforward questions that are quite common in interviews for similar roles.

Question 1
Why did you apply to blackrock?
What is something not on your CV that is interesting.
Wasn't too bad, mostly behavioural and standard interview questions for the hirevue. They gave loads of time to prepare which is a massive plus in my eyes. Definitely caters to all majors well.
Hirevue, asked 4 questions with unlimited prep time, all behavioral even for a somewhat technical role (Quant Analysis & Investment Risk). The unlimited preparation time was super helpful. Would recommend touching up on all behavioral questions.
Great experience. Basic questions. They were super friendly but super smart. Few questions about current affairs and its implications. Got back in a week. Writing definitely recommend. Although I’ll prepare from current affairs they’re not too familiar with to show breath.
