I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Stripe
Interview
Recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, assignment + presentation to talk about it, then a final round onsite on one day with 3 diff interviewers (technical storytelling, project behavioral, technical round)
After some reflection I’ll say that I think the only reason I didn’t get an offer is because I don’t fit the profile of what they think an engineer is supposed to look like (the recruiter said I met all the requirements and did well and was clearly technical enough but the answers I gave “didn’t have enough metrics”) which speaks to a toxic and misogynistic work culture and the glassdoor reviews back that up. If you’re insufferable, really good at talking about yourself and have an inflated sense of your own ego you’ll probably get an offer
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had conflicting opinions from different stakeholders
It is like 4-5 rounds overall. Difficult but doable if you study and prep well. Recruiters are very helpful so definitely build a good connection with them. Overall, good experience just needed to study a little more.

Question 1
Talk to me about a challenging project you worked on
Great so far, going on round 3. Round 2 was a take home project, passed that and onto the hiring manager behavioral round. There was an initial recruiter screening, my recruiter is great and has helped me alot.
