      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Block (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Recruiter reached out to me. Phone screening with the recruiter. Online technical interview. On site. After the online coding exercise, the recruiter never came back with a feedback and ignored all of my emails. I will definitely add them to my black list. If only they had ask interesting questions relevant to the domain...
