Blackrock SA 2025 London

I am creating this post to track application rounds. Did someone hear back after completing the HV? Someone who completed the process last year knows when do they typically call for first round? Personally I applied for Private Markets Investing, do different division have different timelines?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some insights regarding BlackRock's application process:

  1. Hearing Back After HV (HireVue):

    • It's common for candidates to experience a waiting period after completing the HireVue interview. For instance, in the thread titled "BlackRock SA 2020," a user mentioned not hearing back about first rounds even after some time had passed.
  2. Typical Timeline for First Round Calls:

    • The timeline can vary, but generally, you might not hear back immediately. In the "Blackrock Superday San Francisco" thread, a user mentioned waiting for a week after the Superday without any feedback. This suggests that waiting periods can be a part of the process.
  3. Different Divisions and Timelines:

    • Different divisions may indeed have different timelines. For example, in the "Blackrock SA 2022" thread, a user inquired about updates from the Corporate Development group, indicating that timelines can vary by division.
  4. General Advice:

    • Stay positive and proactive. As suggested in the "BlackRock SA 2020" thread, it might be helpful to give them a call if you haven't heard back in a reasonable amount of time.

If you have any more specific questions or need further details, feel free to ask!

Normally they move quite quickly. After HV you often have an interview with 2 people and if you make it to the next stage you will have another interview with another 2 people on the same day (it is like a small AC or superday). After that they will give you the offer or not. First offers are often out by the first week of October. So pays to be quick.
