      Engineering Manager Interview

      30 Nov 2020
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Squarespace in Nov 2020

      Interview

      The process started with a conversation with a recruiter. I then had a phone screen, which was followed by four, one-hour sessions over Google Meet. Normally these would have been on site, but: pandemic. The recruiter closed the interview process with a request for feedback and an explanation of the next steps. A couple of business days later, I had an offer. I was very impressed with the recruiting team, who were very responsive and helpful throughout. There was never a substantial lag in communication or movement of the process. They were very on top of it! I genuinely enjoyed all of the interviews. They were about half focused on technical topics, from coding and language experience to systems design. Those questions felt very fair. As an Engineering Manager (as opposed to an IC) candidate, the questions were appropriately high level and not-at-all brain-teasery. The other half of the interviews were focused on teamwork, leadership, and the nature of the work at Squarespace. They were fun, inquisitive conversations, and the interviewers were very personable. Of course, it's easy to feel positive about the process when you end up with an offer, but I felt just as positive right after the interviews. The post-offer process and paperwork were handled very quickly and efficiently as well. Squarespace has a well-oiled hiring machine.

      Engineering Manager Interview

      13 Nov 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Squarespace (New York, NY) in May 2023

      Interview

      4 rounds of google meet chats. 1 director, 2 hiring manager, 1 PM. Very conversational, nothing very challenging in my opinion. Felt like I was talking out strategy at a place I already worked.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked about my philosophy of running an agile team, asking specifically about how I've adapted agile methodology to suit the team needs rather than sticking to strict scrum methodology
