Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of how you were creative in solving a problem.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BlackRock (New York, NY) in Oct 2010
Interview
Had interview yesterday, haven't yet been contacted regarding Superday. The interview was relatively easy, with few technical questions. I was only tested on technical knowledge when talking about my experiences in a summer internship. The interviewer was fair, unassuming, and even-keeled. Knowledge of the firm is a must. BlackRock prides itself on excellence, and it is necessary to know the firm inside-out when interviewing with them. Advice would be to reach out to current employees to get perspective on culture to have an idea before walking into the interview.
