Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Consensys.
Senior Frontend Engineer
The interview process had about 5 rounds. It started with a technical recruiter screening, followed by a take-home technical assessment with 10 timed questions. Then there was a live coding technical interview with a team member, a technical conversation with the Engineering Manager, and finally a values interview.
- Can you share an instance where you made a mistake and explain the circumstances?
Frontend Engineer
I had an initial phone screening that felt like a cultural fit check. The interviewer didn't seem knowledgeable about defi or their work area. After that, I got a coding challenge. I sent it back and after chasing them a few times, still no response from the recruiter. Totally ghosted. They wasted my time with the challenge and couldn't even be bothered to say I wasn't moving on. Really awful way to treat people.
- What makes you want to join Consensys?
Frontend Engineer
The interview experience was pretty good, though it took a while. There were 5 rounds in total. It included a mix of technical and non-technical chats, a take-home task, and a live pair programming session. I appreciated that there weren't any tricky 'gotcha' questions. The recruiter and the team were really respectful and flexible throughout the process. Although I didn't get an offer, they mentioned I was a finalist, which felt encouraging.
- Can you describe a technical difficulty you encountered in a previous project and explain how you resolved it?
