Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Block in Jan 2022
Interview
Got reached out by a recruiter. Had a screening interview but didn't get into the onsite. The pair programming interview is practical and closed to the real working scenario. I didn't get through it since I only prepare the Leetcode question.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A general data pairing operation with a set of input data points and pairing rules. Then the requirement changes and need to update the solution based on the change.
The interview process consists of four rounds: two coding interviews, one design interview, and one behavioral interview. Each interview has two interviewers - one who drives the session and one who shadows. Coding interviews feature LeetCode medium-level questions.
Interview is smooth, met a very collabrotive interviewer to work on a OOP question together, which is broken down to a few sections, each section is followed up with how i would improve and how I would test it.

Interview
Got a phone call from recruiter for background check and then invited me to the next tech interview. The recruiter was nice and gave me very detailed instructions on preparing the interview such as what coding problems I should practice, what skills the interview is focusing on testing. However, at the interview, the interviewer seems doesn't care about time complexity, thinking aloud, optimization etc.
