Hey,
Just finished their Summer Analyst program in Princeton. I was on the equity side of things. Couldn't have asked for a better experience; the work was challenging but satisfying, and the people were great. The best thing about the internship is that everything is very structured, so you'll have a ton of exposure to the different areas of the firm. Example: there were scheduled "Lunch and Learns" most Fridays in which the interns would have lunch and a discussion with the leader of some group inside the firm.
Prior to the internship, I was nervous that I didn't know enough about finance/equities, but I turned out to actually be ahead of the curve. You'd be surprised how many people in my intern class couldn't even tell you what volatility means. They hire raw talent and potential, so show them that you're willing to work hard and would enjoy the work.
Can't recommend the program enough, let me know if you have other questions.
Great internship, did PMG in London. My team was great, got to attend really interesting broker meetings daily and work on individual projects. Hours weren't that bad (around 60 per week, but I was first in last out). Worked a couple weekends, but just to get a head on the project, definitely not necessary. PMG/FMA definitely better gig than any passive strategies, PAG, tech, retail etc. but if you're interested in those BlackRock is one of the better places to do it. intern program itself was well structured, giving a little exposure to diff areas and a good social scene.
Hey, I have been invited to an AC for BlackRock's summer internship programme! Would you have any advice regarding that? would appreciate any help!!

Very interested in the blacrock summer intern program for 2010, would love if someone would share their thought. Please post if you have completed this internship in the past, or if you currently work at BlackRock. Would really appreciate any insight. Thanks
I did this a long long time ago, but you should know what the different departments do, and whether it actually is a good fit for you. FYI, it is very rare for interns to make it into a portfolio mgt group, which is likely what you are interested in. Do some research on PAG, there should be lots of threads on this board. When I was there, lots of people loved it, lots of people said fuck it after three days.
Damn, only after three days. Thanks for the insight, how did you like it? If you don't mind telling me how the pay/hours/experience was I would appreciate it, Thanks
shoot me a pm with your specific questions/concerns
What year are they looking for?
I landed the PM group for full-time but they explicitly said that it was pretty rare for ugrads to go anywhere near that group.
PAG is sort of a lame group, but if you summer there it will look good on your resume as BlackRock's name goes pretty far.

Hi,
Has anyone begun to interview for internships with BlackRock? Are the interviews difficult? How is the summer internship program if you already went through this past summer or past summers ago? Thanks for your support.
Hi,
I was wondering if you went through the interview process for Blackrock for a summer internship? if yes, can you please let me know what questions did they ask?
Thanks,

it REALLY depends at BlackRock. If you are getting interviewed via a resume drop, its multi-round similar to ibanking. However, you can also interview directly with groups if you just vaguely know someone, in which case you only have one interview.
