This expert guide from Aced (formerly Exponent) incorporates insights from current and former Square product managers involved in hiring for senior-plus roles. The page also links to [Square interview experiences](https://www.aced.io/guides/square-product-manager-interview/experiences), [Square interview questions](https://www.aced.io/guides/square-product-manager-interview/questions), and [Square resumes](https://www.aced.io/guides/square-product-manager-interview/resumes).

## TL;DR

Square’s product manager interview loops are designed to resemble day-to-day product work. Interviewers primarily ask about real Square features and data while assessing how well candidates collaborate throughout the loop.

To succeed, clearly explain distinctive strategic thinking and the reasoning behind launching particular features. Compared with product roles at companies such as Meta, Square is described as having more limited resources, so strong candidates need to persuade stakeholders with competing priorities and understand problems well enough to maximize return on investment.

Square tends to prefer product managers with proficiency in at least some of these areas:

- Product analytics
- Experimental design and A/B testing
- User-centric feature planning

Prepare with [our Product Management Interview Course](https://www.aced.io/courses/pm), which breaks down common PM interview question types and offers advice on connecting with interviewers.

## What does a Square Product Manager do?

At Square, a product manager serves at the intersection of customer needs and business objectives. The role involves defining product strategy, collaborating with teams across the company, and communicating persuasively and clearly with stakeholders.
