      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Dec 7, 2020
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Portland, OR
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Gemini (Portland, OR) in Oct 2020

      Interview

      To begin, I'd like to let anyone know that unless you already work for another company that does work in crypto, do not waste your time with this company - because they will absolutely waste yours. First interview is with a member of the HR team. Basic company information, how the interview process works, what to expect moving forward. Expect this to last about 30 minutes, it is purely informational. Next step is a 30-45 minute call with a team lead. This will go over some of the more technical aspects of what they're looking for. You'll also be expected to go over your background and answer some light, high-level technical questions. The next step is a take-home project. You are given a simple API endpoint for trading 'jobcoins', and you have to build a coinmixer application - a way to anonymize coin transactions. It's very open-ended and you can take it in any direction you'd like. You typically have about a week to complete this. If you make it past this point, you can expect an on-site interview with some behavioral questions and pair-programming. Unfortunately I did not make it to the last step. I was repeatedly told to take my time with the take home problem, only to be told they 'ran out of jobs' 2 weeks after I submitted it. Nobody ever reviewed my take home. It was incredibly disrespectful and callous, and when I prompted them with their behavior they quit responding to my emails. You're not a human being to them, you're a variable in a money-making equation. Expect to be treated as such.

      Question 1

      Build a "coinmixer" to anonymize coin transactions using their 'jobcoin' API.

      OA -> Recruiter Call -> Technical Phone Screen -> HR Call -> Offer Rejected after technical phone screen. Interviewer was on their phone during the coding problem, felt like they were trying to rush to fill the position. Overall bad experience.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gemini in Nov 2024

      Interview

      The interview process involves HR screen, HM screen, 1 live coding, 1 systems design and 1 behavioral. If you need that many loops to decide if someone is right for you, then I don't know what to say. I never liked live coding but I politely declined after I saw live coding and systems design. To me, that is not the best way to showcase my skills. However, the interviewer, said that the HM was "very interested in me". So ... after 1 month... I finally got to talk to the HM... and was very interested in what I had to say. Then... rejection. I get it, no one is perfect. But if you have to take 1 month THEN live coding, systems design and more... your ability to make a decision on a hire is not good. I should have declined again after they asked me to reconsider. Thankfully, bullet was dodged.

      Efficient, professional, and thorough without being overwhelming. The interview was in several stages and included a tech screen for both design and coding as well as behavioral interviews at the manager and senior leadership levels. The entire process was well communicated by the recruiter.
