I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at BlackRock (Vellore) in Sept 2017
Interview
It was through campus placements. The first round was aptitude + technical mcq. Second round was PI. Aptitude part was bit tough and time consuming. Regarding interview, you will be asked questions on what you have put up on your resume.

The first process was the HireVue interview.
There were about 3-5 behavioural questions.

I only had 5 days to respond after submitting the resume.
2 stage Hirevue focused on your knowledge of the company itself, and recent knew in the respective field of application. Followed by an aptitude test focused on your values and preferences, and a mathematical test focused on working with numbers and problem-solving.
