I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Golden
Interview
The interview took place in several rounds. The first round was a chat with HR, then two more technical rounds, and finally a practical task. I don't know if there are any other rounds after this one. The interviews took place over several weeks. In the first interview, although HR was very nice, I was given rather useless information about the company. I received more information about the funding (they must have told me tons of times how proud they are of it) and really little about the role. Finally, a couple of routine questions. Why do you want to change jobs? Tell me about yourself.... I later had an interview with people who were technical, or rather were supposed to be technical, but their knowledge was practically nil for the role they were looking for. This left me very surprised, since the company's main and commercial task is to create a knowledge graph for general purposes.... Finally, one assignment involved reviewing the work they were completing. From a business point of view, it doesn't seem like a very solid company. What they want to do is basically reinvent the wheel again. Or rather the Web 3.0 buzzword, adding the term "knowledge graph." DBpedia, Wikidata, Wikipedia and Yago are free huge well-supported knowledge graphs also used by FANNGs and used by millions of users. What a strange interview...

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Golden (Istanbul) in Oct 2022
Interview
The process was pretty straight forward, but a bit insulting. * An hour on the phone with the recruiter * An hour conversation with one of the engineering leads * 4 hours of leet coding on a digital whiteboard with 4 other engineering leads Most of it was general knowledge about terraform, chi/cd and how I work with others. I left the interview when they surprised me with the knowledge that I would be l33t coding for white boarding. Not interested in being talked down to and made to solve fizz buzz or dropping a glass ball by some kid who wasn't born when I began working. The company itself is kind of lame. Just another "web 3.0 app trying to make it big on "crypto". Basically they are trying to .. do wikipedia, but where you monetize everything from submission to browsing. I felt dirty after I hung up.

Interview
Applied for Frontend position. On second interview screening there was zero questions about frontend. As opposite questions about backend systems and data storages. The company focus is web3. So you need to know really a lot about it. Don't even apply if you are not in AI, NLP, Web 3 and block chains...
