I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Block (Mexico, ME) in Jun 2023
Interview
Quite long with more than 7 calls on different rounds but all of the interviewers were very light and friendly while tasks were reasonably challenging. They seek people with great communication skills, be open.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
NDA; but of course there were architectural questions.
Inital take home, followed by extension interview, followed by a coding challenge, followed by system design interview.
The whole process took 3 months!
The interviewers are usually really nice and want you to do your best.
The interviewer was nice, and he is friendly and willing to give hint, the question has 2 follow-ups, it was hard to complete in time. The question was not a typical LeetCode
Phone screen and then a full day of interviews. 3 pair programming challenges, a system design review and a prior experience interview. There was also an onsite lunch with a person from the company.
