Applications opened this month for BlackRock’s 2021 Analyst program. Does anyone know what month the position starts exactly? Like is it 2021 summer? Also, would help if any BlackRock 2020 Analysts are able to respond with their experiences.

We started August 3rd. I applied through their website, had a hirevue, a zoom interview and then got invited to a Superday. I applied around August and the process was over around November.
Which group are you in? If you don’t mind me asking.
The Portfolio Analytics Group
Hi! What was your interview timeline back then? I asked HR and they told me the recruitment is not on a rolling basis so there is no benefit to apply before deadline (9/30). But I reached out to a professional within my target group and he told me it would be on a rolling basis. I'm confused. I applied on 8/7 and finished Virtual cover letter on 8/9.
I would cool your jets a bit. They haven't even given return offers out to the summer analysts yet.
How long did you hear from your offer after the superday?
Don't work at Blackrock but applied for their real estate group FT last year and didn't get the second round phone interview (after hirevue) until late October.
Bump
Submitted the application but did not receive the HireVue. Anyone in the same boat?..
I got the HireVue shortly after applying.
My application portal also does not mention that I need to complete an assessment. Does not make sense
What division?
Applied for 2. GFI and Sales
So for FT BlackRock, I should expect to hear back around Oct/November?
Yes that s when we heard last year
hopefully
Anyone knows what's going on with the portal? My hirevue isnt' opening...
try refreshing page...u mean trying to start the hirvue isn't working?
yeah... the pop up window for the hirevue video test prompted up but when I click on continue nothing happens...
Bump
just out of curioisty, does anyone know when we will hear any updates such as possible interviews??
They are communicating return offers to SAs this week so probably in the next weeks they will start reviewing applications. Last year got my AC in early december in London and video interviews in november.
May I ask what AC is?
How was the virtual cover letter? Any tough questions?
also interested in this
I got 2 behavioural questions for sales position hk, first is why blackrock and this division? second is tell us a current market news.
hope it helps
hopefully covid wont impact hiring as much for full time but we'll have to see....
fingers crossed
How many spot left for full time? For those groups with very high return rate, whether they will even hire full-time?
hey y'all, was wondering if anyone has heard or know when we'll be hearing about any updates.
Nop. Expect to hear late October, early November.
Any updates?
yea uhh still getting nervous
hopefully they'll still be hiring full time analysts considering the pandemic
Anyone applied to Investment Analyst role in HK or Singapore? Deadline was 16th of Oct and wondering if anyone did hear updates or have brief idea when do they gonna review it?
any updates so far for you?
Na not so far, been 2 months after getting the email says we are going to review the app soon. Which dep/region u applied for? Any update?
Haven’t heard shit since submitting virtual cover letter. Looks like my app is still under review.
anyone hear any updates from US
From hiring manager, said they usually contact in November or later
is that for the US or apac?
Also are you talking about offer updates in November/later or interview updates?
apparently, 1st interviews have started to go out
did anyone get it for NYC??
did first round investment interviews go out???
there are a couple people on wso that i saw got it...fingers crossed their still going through them
i got a interview for wealth advisory sales support analyst , even though i didn't apply for that role originally , does anyone have tips on how to prepare?
Hi Are you based in US? Or ?
based in US
My portal is still pending as well. I guess we should expect something about d early November. Did anyone get any super day for FT 2021 analyst yet?
super day?? fuck, yeah im still waiting on getting the first round
did u have ur first round yet??
Yes, I have. But that's it. The end of the month is at the horizon, so I'm kinda getting annoyed with all this wait.
Absolutely, same to you!
What group?
Equity research as well as an alternative market.
Any update for APAC(Hong Kong) applicants? Wondering if applications are still under review.
yea u guys hear anything?
apparently, they just finished the accelerated interview process
u think since they finished SA accelerated, they'll prob go through fulltime??
tbh no clue. All dependent on business needs..
damm gotcha gothca
thanks for the update
How long is this crap going to take?
ahaha no clue, been waiting for eons
Fuck! I hate this
Any updates for NYC investment processes??? Applied in the summer but did not hear back as yet. I know BlackRock is quite slow with the process and even summers haven't heard as yet but wanted to get insight into the recruiting timelines.
yea i applied for nyc investment too and didn't receive anything
did u receive a first round or nothing yet too??
Did the Hireview that's included in the application but did not do the phone screen as yet. My friend that applied did a phone screen around November last year but idk if they started yet for FT 2021.
If I can still update resume on my portal, whether it means that they haven't viewed my application yet?
yea same, im able to change my resume so not so sure..
any updates y'all?
When does the FT program for BlackRock start? Is it August 2021? Is there training in NY?
lol WAIT did u apply FT and already get an offer? ahaha just asking cause I'm still waiting to see if i get the first round
yea its starts in august 2021 with a training period in NYC for all analysts
Anyone from SG office applied? Any news so far?
Just got word that most programs start the first week of August 2021, or first week of March.
Got confirmation that they are now reviewing applications for investments and the timelines for diff investment teams will vary - should hear back this month
uhh didnt get the email ..did anyone who applied for investing not get the email
They didn't send out a mass email to everyone I asked the rep I chatted with before about timelines because I have another offer
Did you know when they started reviewing? Are they just started?
they just started
does your application update with the email?
Do you think they would be open to asking to push an offer to Jan 2022 instead of Aug 2021 for personal reasons
depends really, does your offer letter say you can negotiate?
I've heard them letting people start early but maybe
Hmmm no it doesn't mention anything about being flexible - do you think its bad if I ask
Got emailed for another position in a different department. I know this is a stretch, but does anyone know if this may impact my consideration for the positions I originally applied for if I go through with this or decline it?
Did you applied this group in your original application? Also what's the group you hear from.
This is not a group I applied for. This is for a more policy-oriented group. I only applied to investment positions.
That happened to a friend last year - they may just be considering you for what they sent an interview for
Hmmm I see. In the email they sent me, they asked if I would be interested in being considered for the group they reached out to me about. If not, then they would continue on considering me for the positions I had applied for.
My I know which group sent you an email? Just wanna know what group is moving forward with the interview.
I don't want to reveal much, but they seem to be in the midst of analyzing resumes for investment positions. The position they reached out to me about to see if I would be interested was not an investment position.
been seeing some people get interviews
LOL am I the only one not getting anything, u think its a bad sign that I haven't heard anything this late?
Anyone else hear back from 11/13 superday?
Which group was the superday for?
USWA
did any of y'all get a rejection yet?
or does ur portal still says "interview" or "we're still reviewing"
It actually still says “ interview” (for first round) even though I finished super day last Friday
.
yea mine still says "we're still reviewing"
not sure if that means I got declined or I am still in consideration
LOL ahah why are you downvoting that, also curious ^^
can anyone tell me what the format was for 1st round interviews?
like behavioral + technical??
all behavioral - why blackrock, why this team etc..
Phone or zoom?
phone for first
heard final is zoom
Im recruiting for the Platform Innovation group for full-time and the hiring manager told me they'll start interviewing in January so for people who haven't received any updates yet maybe thats the reason?
What division is that? Is that like investing/strategy??
Its strategy in New York!
When is your 1st round scheduled? Now or in Jan?
I don't have an interview scheduled at all, but they'll update my portal in January if I got an interview or not!
Did everyone get that update email? Includes a survey as well. Says this will continue on into early 2021.
BRUh thought this was a rejection email...
lmao me too. Thought it was a rejection. It mentioned that 'We are starting reviewing application...'. No word, great efficiency :)
Yeah I got that as well. I believe I did a virtual cover letter long ago. Any idea when they'll get back? Its Jan 2021 lol
What the heck so am I rejected if I didn't get a first round yet??
what makes u say that?
bc its december my guy
I haven't heard back either.
has anyone on this thread interviewed for the SA position on the RE acquisitions team? wondering how long it should take to hear back from superday on 11/20
didn't interview with that team - but generally, Blackrock takes 1-2 weeks to hand out offers
obviously, some people can get offers earlier/later but generally its on average 1-2 w
Has anyone heard back from the London Office regarding Multi-Asset Strategies and Financial Advisory?
Lmao Got my rejection for Multi-Asset Strategies today.
Did you go through Super Day? And I’m sorry :(
sorry my guy...prob be in the same boat as you soon the way things are looking for me
im sorry to hear that my guy...
Received email today saying my "application is still under review" for 2021 SA Alternative Investments in London. Has anybody heard about hiring in this division?
Has anyone heard back for a first round for alternative investments or fixed income NYC? Ughhhh BlackRock pls
anyone heard back for NY investing or any other role in NY?
rt^ let me know. Is investing even hiring for FT 2021 or 2022?
maybe but FT is always much harder than SA due to the limited # of spots - so I imagine they are probably but they must be taking only a few considering most of their team is filled by the incoming SA
also I imagine since its only a few spots and a boatload of people applied, it must be insanely competitive
Following
updates y'all for nyc?
bruh no .. should we now expect to hear back Jan bc the holidays are approaching
i hope we'll hear some good news in jan but no clue.
def hear a result regardless of the decision though
Any updates for London Financial Market Advisory? FT in Blackrock this year is definitely insanely competitive.
Any idea when we'll hear back? It still says they're reviewing my applications. Also, a good idea to submit my updated resume on the portal?
this month you will definitely hear a response regardless of the decision ~ hopefully its good though
wouldn't hurt to update, think they said that in the email also
Thanks for the help! Good luck to you!
What’s comp look like for these roles?
standard comp really
check offer letter for the annual amount
Hi, did any one of you got an offer?
The number of posts at Blackrock seem so limited now... I'm applying in Europe and I can only see Aladdin Client Services and Sales and Management Relationship :(
Facts, I’ve been waiting for month now. How long till they reply? Isn’t the new position starting date in February?
starts in march or august
they said everyone will hear back in jan regardless of the result
but its prob a no since its so late ~hopefully not but not getting any hopes up
Has anyone heard anything? By the looks of it, it seems they aren’t hiring for Investments NYC in most divisions.
bump^^
Coffee chatted a recruiter and they said they aren't looking at investments FT NYC rn. pain.
It seems like FT for investments nyc will be down to group needs and very ad-hoc if they need ppl
Has anyone heard back for Financial Markets Advisory for London FT? I feel they might not even be hiring in the first place
Gotten rejected so never mind.
Just got an email from recruiting team if I'm still interested in the position and got informed that they will start looking at our applications. Did anyone got this email? Applied to Alternate investment role in APAC HK
HA i wish i got any emails from them
nah applied to nyc and didn't hear anything
assuming they are not hiring for nyc investment roles
Mate got this email like 6 months after finishing the virtual interview thing. Not sure if this means I've got through the previous stage tho. Just asked if I'm still interested in the role and the team will be starting look at the applications... you prob will hear soon as well?
