Blackrock Interview

I'm a Senior Consultant with Deloitte working as a product owner/functional consultant. I've total of 11 yoe and MBA from an IIM (2nd generation). I've mostly worked for projects in only healthcare and life sciences industry as part of product role.

I've an interview scheduled with BlackRock this week for Vice President, product manager role for their in house product Aladdin. I've zero finance knowledge tbh and depend on my sister/BIL for my own investment decisions. Lol.

Any suggestions on what should I expect in this role/interview. How is BlackRock as a company. Would it be right decision to move there. TIA!

I think while you may not have finance expertise, your 11+ years as a Product Owner and IIM MBA are strong assets. For the Aladdin PM role, focus on your ability to lead complex products in regulated industries (like healthcare) and quickly learn new domains.

Research Aladdin basics - it's BlackRock's investment/risk platform for institutions. Expect discussions on scaling enterprise products, data-driven decisions, and stakeholder management. Be ready to demonstrate how you've mastered new industries before.

Your consulting background will help, especially in structured problem-solving. Admit the finance gap but emphasize your track record of rapid domain mastery.
