I was contacted by the recruiter to schedule a phone interview where she asked why I thought I was a good fit. We discussed salary expectations and life at Square. She passed me to the next round, which was an interview with the hiring manager three days later. He was very friendly and open about role expectations and the timeline for the hiring process, as well as opportunities for advancement. The final round was panel interviews with the team the following week, consisting of three back to back interviews for 30 minutes each. The first two were very role specific questions. The last one came out of nowhere with the curveball questions. This wasn’t my first time making it to the final round of interviews with Square and it seems like there’s a pattern on the panel interviews where the first two are very friendly and outgoing and the last is very professional with a lot of questions that aren’t really specific to the role and meant to see how you work under pressure. Overall, every person I talked to seemed to really love the. Two days after my final interview, the recruiter called to offer me the position.
