      Quantitative Research Analyst Interview

      31 Jan 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BlackRock in Jan 2012

      Interview

      Two managers asked me what I will do with a bunch of money, how will I do the investment. It's very "finance", not exactly what I am looking for.

      Quantitative Research Analyst Interview

      29 Feb 2016
      Anonymous employee
      London, England
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at BlackRock (London, England) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      Automated video interview, in person interview then final round 1 on 1 45 min interview. The interviews were competency and exploring more technical/research aspects of my degree (Engineering), some of this was quite challenging. All technical/coding skills questions were fairly easy. They answered all my questions about the role and even arranged a confidential talk with an analysts who had done the internship before, to help me decide between two offers I had. Everyone seemed friendly but very smart.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Run me through the processes involved in a simple perceptron neural network.
