Process

A friend at BlackRock referred me. It took nearly a month to get feedback, and we arranged a phone interview. The questions were simple:

  1. Level order traversal
  2. Merge intervals

Both are common LeetCode problems. I received the invitation for the on-site interview that afternoon. There were three interviewees for this position on my interview day. Each of us had three 1-on-1 interviews, each lasting 45 minutes. They asked a lot about Java. Really, be sure to prepare as specifically as possible regarding Java.
