United StatesPosted Oct 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process leaned heavily toward crypto/trading context, and the experience was mixed—technical content felt demanding, but how the interview was run also impacted me.

Algo phone interview with crypto context — a standard phone interview with algorithm questions; it felt straightforward and not very crypto-focused, though my crypto awareness was noticed.
Recruiter screen + crypto knowledge tests + pair programming — I was screened by a recruiter about past experience and crypto/coinbase knowledge, then did multiple online tests and a pair programming interview.
Trading-focused long question — I was given a long, hard trading-related question where understanding it early made the rest easier; it was repeated as a key preparation message.
