I went through their process, passed in their top cohort (or so they told me, probably it was to massage my ego). And then they dropped that public profile bomb the first time around.

I’d say I cost them a lot of money when I deleted my account, but they actually cost it themselves.

They could have asked me if I wanted a fancy jacket, because that ended up immediately getting recycled. The book was dece tho

Anyways, I ended up getting a job that I love the old fashioned way - through a friend.

Great concept, shit company.

Edit: Triplebyte employees reading this: you massively betrayed my trust. Had you asked me, and let me review on my own time, I might have even been proud to have a verified skill set badge page I could link to. Instead, I will probably look directly for your competitors on my next job search. You had a great idea, too bad that you seem to be irresponsible.

I wish more companies use this method.

I think Nepotism generally causes legal issues for companies.

Well, I had to pass an extensive interview process in which said friend was not involved. So I wouldn’t consider it nepotism.
