Bump. Did it about 2 weeks ago so hoping they just haven't started reviewing apps yet. Would suck to get dinged this early lol

 

Just got SD email. Are blackrock SD mostly behavioral?? It doesn’t say what to expect in the email

 

For ppl who have taken sd, when do you guys find the meeting link. I have one on June 28th morning and the portal hasn't show any logistics or links. 

 

Don't be jefe. I've heard it takes MINIMUM 1 week to 2 weeks even to hear acceptances. Don't lose hope. Pls update forum when you hear decision so others can know reasonable timeframe to expect decision by

 

Nope. I've scoured the depths of internet and so far, only heard from 2 ppl that some got rejections for 2024 SA after their superday. Mine was Friday 6-23, they said at the time "expect to hear from us next week" so I'm hoping to hear today or tmrw. 

 

May I ask what kind of questions they ask on the spd? All technicals or mostly behavioural? Thanks so much. Because they told me it will last for 2hrs 40mins for my spd im so confused why it takes that long

 

I had a superday on 6/21 (last Wednesday) for Platform Innovation. Haven't heard back yet. I thought I had a great interview and connected really well with all 4 interviewers so hoping for the best!

 

I had 90% behavioral/motivational (prep for why BLK, why this team, why hire you, etc. - nothing out of the blue) , and 10% technical. Technicals were super easy - hardest one they asked me was "explain _____ concept to me as if I'm your grandma" and "walk me through XYZ programming/data science project". Didn't ask for any lines of code, just functions & libraries used . Hope this helps

 

Has anyone heard anything yet? I saw some posts about how we were supposed to hear back this week and my interviewers told me I'd hear back 'quickly'. I doubt they would call everyone on Friday afternoon so I wonder what's going on.

 

EII in San Francisco! Haven’t heard back from the NYC EII position I applied to, or the NYC software dev position, but to be totally frank I don’t care anymore 

 

They needed confirmation for my transcript cause I am from a Canadian University and my transcript didn't have my GPA on it :/ but it was approved by HR later, but no update on decision 🤷🏻‍♂️

 

Anyone know if it’s worth to start applying now? I don’t start my IB SA internship until mid august so idk if waiting until I can add it to the cv will affect my chances.

 

I applied before starting my summer internship but on my resume I put that I accepted a summer role with X company and listed the main skills and responsibilities I'll be having based on the job desc. I got a superday (waiting on offer) and during the superday they asked about how it's going so I think it's better to make them aware ur working  this summer even if u haven't started yet

 

I was thinking of writing something in mine along the lines of: " Will join team x this summer to aid the team in financial modelling tasks and building presentations" as a single bullet point. Are saying its best to put 3-4 bullet points of what I'll actually do?

 

Okay, I haven’t heard any responses back by email and there hasn’t been any changes in my portal. It still says interview scheduled in the portal and that they are reviewing feedback from my interview. Felt the sd went really well so I’m hoping I hear something soon
