I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gemini (New York, NY) in Feb 2022
Interview
Interesting take home test that involves cryptocurrency. Very open ended, which I liked. I was able to show my ability without a nerve wracking algos interview. Besides that mostly cultural questions.
Put me into 5 rounds of interviews to be rejected. It was mixture of easy and medium difficulty questions. Timing for interviews was bad where some of it was mid night or somewhere between mid night and morning.
Recruiter call, HM interview, onsite
- got contacted by recruiter only to get ghosted after he told me there were openings for multiple teams. doesn't look like they have their openings for engineering teams anymore anyway but i never got a proper update
Overall the interview process was professional.
Team manager was frank and honest about the workload.
Had a take home assignment.
Interviewers take good attention in analysing the skillsets I have.
