Submitted an application for one position at Coinbase yesteray. Today got an email from their auto-reply system saying that they are moving forward with other more experienced candidates. My application seems to be filtered out by a robot not by a real human. I have 5 YOE and have a few yrs of working for multiple for big and medium firms here. God knows what kind of candidates are in their recuiter’s mind. Coinbase exchange for Crypto sounds like a scam. How do you build a DeFi when you ask people to submit their personal information? Feel like Coinbase just like Airbnb, Lyft a few yrs ago. They are like one of the hottest unicorns on the market. Their work culture looks fancy and nice from the outside, people are fighting their heads to get a position there. Their recruiters have an unrealistic high bar for their candidates. Until one big event hits(for example, covid), everyone starts to leave and their positions are not as lucrative as before. The same thing is gonna happen for Coinbase soon once more regulation starts to hit the market and Crypto bubble burst out. One side note, usually the business does not have good business model like to set super unrealistic high bar. They set up a very high bar to make it sounds like a legit business so people can fight their heads over some opportubities there. In human’s mind, the harder to get, the better. I have to say some of those recruitters from those unicorns really know how to maniupluate human’s mind. #coinbase #airbnb #lyft
The worst case scenario seems to be an auto reject? Why stay away?
now you know why 🙂
Which position did you compete for?
it's not their problem I've seen worse
Poor baby
Coinbase never responded to me so I’m sad 😔
U deserve better! The Crypto bubble will burst out one day
They pay a lot more than my company for the exact same position though ☹️
Coinbase is a shit product
Use referral... plenty here on blind that will refer if you dm them some info
At least you didn’t waste hours on a take-home like what Kraken does
Kraken is better. At least exchange fees is lower
agree with op Coinbase isn't great
Lol you sound salty
I’m not salty yo! I’m stating a truth. A few yrs ago, Airbnb, Lyft, Uber looks very trendy on the market. Guess what happened once the pandemic hits. The same thing is gonna happen on Coinbase sooner or later.
If you know coinbase will go down, why did you apply in the first place 😀

I am starting to think Chinese interviewers currently fail non-Chinese candidates on purpose.

It’s true Coinbase sucks. Look what they just did to their new hires
Seems like OP's going to have the last laugh 😄 Everyone's shitting on CB now. Layoffs will be the icing on the cake.
