I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BlackRock (Utrecht) in Mar 2025
Interview
3 parts, logic, programming, personality. 3 different people all pretty young, no enthusiasm but nice and helpful. It was set through calendar scheduling and early in the morning. The logical part was a programming problem, I had to talk through it and code a little. programming one was a lot harder, do with database no algorithms no trees like I was warned. And personality test was nice guy asked about cv and other soft skills.

Question 1
How would you solve a fight between two member of your team without involving the higher ups or yourself.
Online assessments followed by interviews. Only the last interview round was about me as a person, the rest was only coding interviews. It was friendly but long with lengthy breaks in between rounds.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at BlackRock
Interview
Very friendly, but the process was very spaced out with a lot of waiting. Overall the process wasn't very difficult, but it was a lot of work. I got to the final round, but didn't receive an offer.

Question 1
Two rounds of technical coding interviews, and one interview about you as a person.
Virtual interview on HireVue, asked two basic questions to assess soft skills. Preparation time was fairly long but no chance to re-record answers. Overall, it was a smooth and quick experience but should've researched more about the firm.
