I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Block (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
I was referred to the position by a friend and was immediately contacted by the recruiter later that day. The recruiter was very kind, and I had a great phone screen with her. Next, was an interview via Hangouts for the role (part of the team is in New York) where you present your portfolio. I have limited product experience, and come from a marketing background, so they decided to move forward with a different candidate.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Their questions were specific to my work and not general interview questions. But they asked the general, why I was seeking employment and what sort of role am I looking for questions.
