Entrevista
I had a great experience interviewing with Square, from the moment a recruiter reached out to me to the time that a decision had to be made on my offer.
Square process:
1) HR Screen
2) Technical phone screen -- usually there are two, but I did well enough on the first one that I moved straight to onsite
3) Onsite -- full day schedule, 3 technical pair programming sessions, one sys design, one chat with hiring manager
4) Offer and potential team matching -- Square interviews you as a generalist, team matching will happen sometimes during or after the onsite
In the end I had a great experience every step of the way and was extended a very competitive package. Pay is high if your interview performance is good. I ended up turning down the offer but it was a very hard decision to do so.
