I applied through other source. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at BlackRock (New York, NY) in Oct 2017
Interview
Abrupt, straight to the point, brief self intro then straight to technical questions, didnt even get to ask about the company. I was not warned about the experience I had so I was taken by surprise.
