Argentina 🇦🇷 don’t do a Brazil!
I have an initial recruiter phone interview with Square Thursday. Is it it just a phone call or is it a video call and they didn’t specify. If it’s a video call what’s the dress code like? I’m coming from consulting so all my interviews were in suits. Any tips to get past the recruiter phone screen?

Interview is based on STAR methodology. You might as well clearly lay it out for them: the situation was X, task was Y, etc. I had an interviewer ask that I do this.
Every answer should tie back to the 14 principles. They are grading you against those whether they tell you they are or not. Each interviewer is assigned a few principles to cover. You should have a STAR for each principle as it relates to the role.
The online interview is with Chime (Amazon’s Zoom). The web version doesn’t work well. Make sure to download the app.
I recently went through the process and did not get the gig. I don’t think I was STAR-y enough and didn’t have proper time to prep due to work demands. Total bummer.
