I had the privilege visiting the Coinbase Headquarters in San Francisco as I was interested in a\u00a0position there. Coinbase is\u00a0one of the largest digital currency exchanges in the world and certainly well funded<\/a>.<\/p>\n I had an initial phone screening conversation with Brittany, the HR person there. Then I talked to another HR person, Alvin. I then had a phone interview with John. I was then invited to come onsite for 2 face to face technical interviews. Gotta say, the process was thorough!<\/p>\n Their office was nice with amazing views in downtown San Francisco.<\/p>\n The first technical interview was with Brad who was a nice and knowledgable guy. I was given a problem of trying to balance the spend of a group of people where one person paid for the rest of the group or sub group.<\/p>\n After an hour I then moved to another room and talked with Craig, a software engineer where I had a warm up question. It was to find the angle between the long hand and the short hand of an analogue clock at the time of 3:15.<\/p>\n Next, I had to code up a function to perform the Fibonacci sequence using https:\/\/codepair.hackerrank.com<\/p>\n It was a very interesting experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I unfortunately failed miserably at all the tasks as my coding skills were too rusty. I still remember all too well pulling all nighters in my 20’s and reading through hundreds of lines of code with a looming deadline.\u00a0I’m more of a dabber\/POC person these days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00a0 \u00a0 I had the privilege visiting the Coinbase Headquarters<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":728,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[15],"class_list":["post-152","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bitcoins","tag-coinbase"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300-300x225.jpg",300,225,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"large":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"chromenews-featured":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"chromenews-large":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false],"chromenews-medium":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/coinbase300.jpg",300,225,false]},"author_info":{"info":["seandotau"]},"category_info":"Bitcoins<\/a>","tag_info":"Bitcoins","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=152"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":622,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152\/revisions\/622"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
