I applied through an employee referral. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at BlackRock (New York, NY) in Jun 2012
Interview
The hiring process was thorough but fair. It included three rounds of interviews, the last of which was long and included 7 interviews. The people were very nice, and while they asked a lot of questions, they did not try to make me uncomfortable or stressed.

HireVue may ask about recent news, why you chose BlackRock, which company principle matters most to you, and why you applied for this position — answering well can secure acceptance.
