Applied online and then given a hirevue coding test + video interview question. The coding test was pretty standard java string questions and the hirevue video interview just asked why you majored in what you major. I do not know what comes next as thats all I got to. I assume the next step would be an onsite or phone interview.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at BlackRock (Wilmington, DE) in Jun 2016
