I applied through college or university. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at BlackRock (New York, NY) in Apr 2019
Interview
I got an email saying that I had been selected for an interview (by one of the recruiters), and that they would move forward with my application ASAP. 3 weeks passed and I decided to follow up, when I did the recruiter didn't even bother responding. Very unprofessional. It has been 4 months since.
Online assessments followed by interviews. Only the last interview round was about me as a person, the rest was only coding interviews. It was friendly but long with lengthy breaks in between rounds.

About past leadership experience from my previous work
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at BlackRock
Interview
Very friendly, but the process was very spaced out with a lot of waiting. Overall the process wasn't very difficult, but it was a lot of work. I got to the final round, but didn't receive an offer.

Question 1
Two rounds of technical coding interviews, and one interview about you as a person.
Virtual interview on HireVue, asked two basic questions to assess soft skills. Preparation time was fairly long but no chance to re-record answers. Overall, it was a smooth and quick experience but should've researched more about the firm.
