Me postulé en línea. Acudí a una entrevista en Block en jun 2019
Entrevista
The recruiter I initially talked to over the phone was great, interested in my career goals, and was engaging. The technical phone screen was entirely opposite. The interviewer was completely disinterested from the beginning, didn't understand the programming question, and reluctantly answers questions about company culture. This reflected poorly on Square as a place to work and the quality of engineers there.
