Hi Coinbase, not complaining. Just wanted to know about my recent experience with you. Here is what happened when you called me:
CB: Since you're in the middle of your job search, and you have good work experience and we have limited time, we'll skip technical interview if you pass our test with 4.5 score or above and I will connect you right with Director of Engineering.
ME: OK
CB: Here is 40-minute TripleByte test.
ME: Done
CB (the next day): You scored a 5/5 and in the 96th percentile! I would love to move forward and have you speak with XXX, Director of Engineering
ME: OK
(non-technical call with director of engineering)
CB (next day): we have decided to proceed with other candidates (automated response)
ME: (reached out to HR, no response)
Just wanted to know if you have any updates on this? I believe you're doing a great job and I wanted to know what went wrong? (I don't believe it's my age, nationality, or technical experience). This is the only place I can get reply from you since you're not responding.
