Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Bitfinex nel mese di mag 2023
Colloquio
They reached out to me. The first step is a take home assignment that uses their SDK. Took me about 7 - 8 hours to complete it. I was told I can email if have questions during the assignment. When I emailed no one responded. The SDK has poor documentation (spent more than an hour figuring it out). After I submitted, they ghosted me. No response when I reach out to them. Total waste of time.

Colloquio
The careers site promotes roles in a fully remote, globally distributed environment and emphasizes passion for crypto, hard work, and ownership.
1) Application Submission
I've got emailed back after a couple of weeks to receive a written test that acted as screening with very simple questions, followed by a brief HR/recruiter video call to discuss about my background and the job expectations.
They immediately told me about their effort requirements and "extreme dedication to work".
3) Take-Home Task
After that they sent me an unpaid 8-hour coding project to basically rewrite the components they have on the main app.
The task was very difficult as I had to learn about their real API, even if they provided a link to their documentation.
All things considered there was definetly not enough time to do everything, but somehow I managed to pass it.
4) Technical Interview
After a week it followed another call about technical knowledge with specific questions about javascript, react, html and all those kind of stuff, followed by some weird questions like "what's your favourite crypto?".
I've received an email with an offer the day after the call.

Colloquio
Stage 1: The initial HR interview provided limited insight into the role, compensation package, and company culture, with vague details.
Stage 2: Candidates were tasked with creating a complete peer-to-peer bidding application within an 8-hour timeframe during the coding challenge. The project specifications were basic and not outlining required functionalities and optional enhancements.
Stage 3: The technical interview phase proved challenging, with participants facing unpreparedness and an awkward atmosphere. Questions lacked structure and coherence, resembling those generated by ChatGPT. HR had mentioned that questions would be tied to the assessment and its related content.
I’d avoid as processed is dragged unnecessarily and your time is wasted.
