J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Binance (Londres, Angleterre) en févr. 2021
Entretien
Applied through the company website online, but did not get a response. Maybe this is because Binance is no longer operating in the UK. So would recommend to apply for roles in Asia or Hong Kong in particular.
Approached me for an interview, I did not apply for it explicitly. Sent me an invite, not much explanation on the interview. During the interview, the interviewer said "you are so confident, aren't you?" in a patronizing, condescending, cocky tone. During live coding section, interviewer went missing for awhile when I asked questions. No rejection e-mail either, completely ghosted.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
How sure are you that you are ready for this role?
bad, disrespectful. interviewer was late and kept asking non related questions. Every question was disconnected and interviewer did not turn on camera. Also speak chinese during the whole interview, mumbling throughout couldn’t understand anything.

Entretien
The interviewer started the interview by speaking in Mandarin, which was not what i expected as the recruiter spoke to me in English and didn't inform me that the interview would be conducted in Mandarin.
There were quite a few communication problems through the interview as i struggled a little to understand the technical terms in mandarin, since i am not from China and learned computer science in English.

Question 1
The coding question was ok: merge lists, find out whether a number in listA is smaller than in listB, etc.
However, i was asked some pretty difficult questions later on. Eg, Redis operations (which i obviously couldn't answer due to no experience with redis), ways to prevent double booking, rate limiting in a distributed environment (how to track all the counters)...
