Coinbase bar raiser question

Hello teamblind, are bar raiser interviews only applicable for leadership roles or for IC roles as well? At what point in the interview stage does the bar raiser interview occur for leadership positions - phone screen or during onsite? #coinbase #engineering

Onsite. You would know right away which one is the bar raiser. The interviewer is going to be super condescending.

This is honestly how I feel about bar raiser interviews

What's a bar raiser interview?

Someone who is not related to the team that will be involved in the interview process is a bar raiser. For e.g a legal person interviewing an engineering candidate. They are mainly looking for culture and values fit.

I didn’t get a bar raiser for IC on-site

The behavioural interview for engineering ic may have been the bar raiser. But that is just my theory. Coinbase employees can confirm
