Smooth, 2 rounds, The interview process at BlackRock was well-organized and professional. I faced a mix of technical and behavioral questions, mainly focusing on Java and Spring Boot. The technical rounds tested problem-solving, coding skills, and understanding of backend development concepts. Interviewers were approachable and supportive, making the experience challenging yet fair. Overall, a great opportunity to showcase skills and learn about enterprise-level development practices.
Surprising questions that are quite different from other interviews. I don't know if that was just my personal experience. It was a HireVue and some questions caught me off guard. Overall the experience was pretty standard though.
The HireVue lasts around 30 minutes. There's 2-3 minutes to prep for each question. The process is smooth, just as any other big corporate company's video assessment. There is an introduction before you start to remind you of the guidelines and the company's values.
