      Spring Week Programmer Interview

      11 May 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BlackRock (London, England) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      Process consisted of 2 interviews. The first with 2 employees and the second with just 1 employee. The first set of interviewers were overall more friendly, although they had a good-cop bad-cop setup.The second interview was much tougher, the interviewer really challenged my answers and pushed me to analyse further. It was a challenging process. Note I was informed of the interviews only two days in advance.
