United StatesPosted Mar 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My Coinbase interview path was fairly conventional: assessments to screen for fit and coding ability, followed by a small number of focused technical and behavioral rounds.

Recruiter call — a team-match conversation based on my resume.
Aptitude/culture fit + CodeSignal OA — I completed assessment steps that included both aptitude and coding.
Online coding OA (CodeSignal, multi-part) — I worked through multiple parts; in one case I fully completed the first two and still advanced despite an issue in a later section.
Onsite/technical rounds — I reached on-site style rounds with two coding interviews and a behavioral component.
Technical questions — the technical portion leaned on LeetCode-medium-style prompts, and the recruiter/rounds
