I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Block in Jul 2023
Interview
The interview process consisted of 3 parts. The first call is with the Recruiter then you're moved to the next round which has 2 interview loops: SQL paired scripting screen & Python Pair coding screen. After that there is the last round which consists of 4 interview loops which assess the technical abilities in Python, SQL and System Design.
I applied online. I interviewed at Block (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2017
Interview
First there was a 20 minute call with HR. After that there was a technical phone interview. It covered both coding (Python) and SQL skills. After the phone interview I was invited to on site interview. On site interview consisted of five 45 minute consecutive interviews. They included coding part (Python), SQL part (Whiteboard), database design part (schema design and queries writing), "lunch interview", and the last one was with PM. All parts were very good, interviewers were very friendly and helpful. I felt neither pressure nor anything negative. The only negative thing is that Square hasn't reimbursed me yet (I flew from another state) although the on site interview was 2 month ago.
