I applied online. I interviewed at BlackRock (New York, NY) in Mar 2015
Interview
You first go through the recorded interview online, which is easier than you would think. I thought I did horribly but I just talked about my hedge fund class and ETFs we were trading. There is a video interview with one of the employees, which is very relaxed as well. If you pass that, they fly you to them for a 4-5 hour interview. You first eat lunch with the analysts and the other interns. After, you have separate interviews with Managing Directors, which were former Lehman Brothers employees.

It was very comfortable, and the portfolio managers that interviewed me were very friendly and made me feel at ease during the whole process.
