BlackRock 2025 SA
Haven't seen a thread for this yet so here it is. Anyone have any insights on the process?
Applications opened last week and it says they'll start reviewing applications in May. As soon as I applied I received a link to the hirevue. There's one hirevue for each position you apply to (max. 2).
Would also be very interested!
Based on the most helpful WSO content, the BlackRock Summer Analyst hiring process typically involves several steps, including the initial application, HireVue video interviews, and sometimes, super day interviews. Here's a breakdown of what you can expect, especially considering your mention of the HireVue step:
Application Submission: You've already completed this step by submitting your application. BlackRock usually reviews applications on a rolling basis, even though they've mentioned they will start reviewing in May. It's good to apply early.
HireVue Video Interviews: As you've noted, you receive a HireVue link shortly after applying. This is a crucial step in the process. The HireVue typically consists of behavioral questions, and you might be asked why you're interested in BlackRock, why you chose your major, and how it will help you in your desired role. Prepare to discuss your skills, experiences, and how they align with the role you're applying for. Each position you apply to will have its own HireVue, allowing you to tailor your responses to the specific role.
Super Day Interviews: Candidates who perform well in the HireVue interviews may be invited to Super Day interviews, which are more in-depth and involve multiple interview rounds with team members. These can be conducted virtually or in-person, depending on the circumstances.
Offer Stage: Successful candidates will receive an offer to join the Summer Analyst program. Offers typically come after the Super Day interviews and can vary in timing, depending on the division and the specific timeline of the recruitment process.
To prepare for the HireVue and potential Super Day interviews, focus on articulating your interest in finance and BlackRock, understanding the division you're applying to, and being able to discuss your experiences and skills confidently. Reviewing common behavioral interview questions and practicing your responses can also be beneficial.
Remember, the key to success in the BlackRock hiring process is preparation, professionalism, and a clear understanding of why you want to work at BlackRock and in the specific role you're applying for.

Anyone know if they sponsor?
They say they don't offer visa sponsorship on their website, but I'm not sure if that included CPT/OPT because those technically don't require sponsorship
Lmao what black rock sponsors every front office role. Also why stress they have so many locations. You can always transfer to a diff office for a year
Are the hirevue questions the same two they always ask? Or are there more?
Same questions
Are they behavorial?
Any chance you can share what the questions are? pretty please
^^please send
genuine question: to those who asked for the interview questions from your literal competitors, would you be willing to share if it was the other way around?

Nope, newport beach private markets investing, just realized it was a hirevue again
Any updates so far after hirevues? Also, did anyone manage to get referrals?
Just completed two. Anyone know why Investing portfolio management and private market investing are the same questions but two separate hirevue? They had the same questions and I got so confused
Same here I was confused! What questions did u get?
Anyone know when R2s go out?
In their careers website’s Q&A section, they only say they will start reviewing and rolling out interviews “in May.”
I received this in my email a few days ago: Thank you for applying to the 2025 Summer Internship Program - [pretend role name and location is here]. Your application has advanced to the next review phase. You will continue to receive email updates as our review progresses.
This came in my inbox about a week or two after my HireVue. It's been radio silence ever since. I'm not familiar with BlackRock's interviewing habits. What does this mean?
as someone who didn’t receive that email, I think it’s a good sign since not everyone received it.
Fair enough, thanks for the input! Fingers crossed for you! By chance, do you know what this would entail for me?
Did you apply early april, mid april or end of april?
submitted app apr 9, completed hirevue apr 10
Not sure if you were asking me but in case you were:
Applied mid/late April, completed the assessment in late April. Received email a few days ago. For further context, I applied to 2 roles at the same time but only got one response.
Not familiar with the BlackRock interview process, do you know what I should expect next so I can prepare?
got my superday
Nice! From hirevue straight to superday? When r u scheduled for

Is fma considered to be 2 roles?
Just applied. Do I have absolutely no shot given how late it is or is there still a chance of getting an SD? I read in last year's thread that people were getting SDs late June as well.
Does anyone know when private market investing will send out SPD? Market research & financial advisory NYC also sent out spd.
