I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Block (Cambridge, MA) in Oct 2015
Interview
I applied through my schools career website. I heard back from them within a couple of days and I had an on-campus interview at the college's interview facilities. They scheduled 2 interviews, but told me they don't want to proceed with the second one after I did the first one. I didn't like the interviewer at all since it seemed like all he was trying to do was shoot down my ideas instead of constructively participating in the process.
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience. We were really disappointed to read about your interview process — definitely not cool, and we're really sorry. We'll discuss your feedback with the team immediately. We will work to make sure that interviewers constructively participate in interviews in the future. We have recently introduced interview training to a new audience and we hope it addresses the issue you experienced. The candidate experience is very important at Square and we value your feedback.
Best,
The Square Talent Team

Interview
I signed up through a college recruiting website and heard back from them regarding an interview within a couple of days. The interview lasted for an hour and was in person. I didn't like the vibes I was getting from the interviewer because it seemed like all he wanted to do was shoot my ideas down instead of constructively walk me through the problems.
