The recruiting process at Coinbase was very efficient. The interviews were scheduled quickly and the recruiter put a lot of dedication finding a team and working on a compelling offer.
There were a few unusual steps in the process, such as an online culture assessment and a CCAT26 test.
I didn't need to know much about crypto, but they care a lot about culture and mission alignment.

Good process. It was fairly efficient and the recruiter asked good questions that seemed relevant to the work I would be doing. I did not get very far in the loops, but would accept another interview request if offered. so it was ultimately a good experience.
