Many candidates feel that by saying they do not have questions, they are showing that they have researched the job and fully comprehend the requirements. Don't fall into that trap. One of the biggest interview mistakes you can make is not preparing any relevant questions.
As they say on their site, "Get answers to your questions." By asking an insightful question, you show the interviewer full engagement and interest. Be sure that your queries are not mundane or redundant. The last thing an interviewer wants to hear is a question that is easily answered by simple research. Dig a bit deeper and ask questions related to the company's goals, your interviewer's favorite part about working for Square, upcoming changes in the industry, or clarification from your resume.

"Beyond the job description, is there something particular you are looking for? What does your ideal candidate look like? Are there any specific skills not detailed in the position description that you highly value or think are important?"

"Thank you for asking! What is the biggest challenge that Square's sales team will face in the next 12 months? What does a typical day look like in this position? Is this a recently vacated position or a new position? Under what circumstances did this position become vacant? How were they valued by the team?"
