I applied through an employee referral. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe (New York, NY) in Sep 2019

Phone screen with recruiter > phone interview with hiring manager > take home challenge/assignment > call to present/discuss assignment > on-site interviews > final phone interview w/Head of Sales
Overall, very thoughtful and purposeful interview process. The candidate experience at Stripe was one of the best I’ve had, leaving me with a strong first impression. My only issue is that with 12 interviews, it was very involved and time consuming. Would love to see the process streamlined going forward, perhaps looking into how to cut down the process by one or two interviews.
My recruiter, Francesca, was fantastic. She moved quickly, was insightful, flexible, great at following up, and very easy to work with throughout the process. She did a great job of setting me up for success, making sure I understood the roles and context of everyone I interviewed with.
Recruiter screen super positive, but peer account executive interview was surprising. When you hear the product feedback loop is largely informal/personal and relationship based with product managers. I’m curious how the team plans to scale those insights as the head-count grows. It might be the Account Executive wasn't aligned on Stripe.

Stripe's Dublin-based hiring appears rigid, with a strong preference for local Irish candidates—even for specialized EMEA roles. The process inconsistently advances high-volume English-only positions but quickly rejects qualified applicants for EU market-specific ones, suggesting early screening prioritizes local Irish hires over broader merit or fit for the roles focusing on EU market.
