Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

November 3, 2015

Process

HR was great for scheduling interviews.

The interview process included:

  • One phone screen
  • Two onsite interviews

The phone screen was technical, featuring interesting problems and general discussion about Coinbase. The two onsite interviews were with early engineers. However, these onsite interviews felt unprofessional; the interviewers were on Slack the entire time and showed no interest in engaging in conversation or asking questions. I had high hopes for my Coinbase interview, having heard great things, so this experience was a total shock.
