I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Stripe (Waterloo, ON) in Oct 2019
Interview
Stripe Engineers flew out to my campus to conduct in-person interviews over the course of 3 days. The team moved very quickly and let people know if they made it to the second round on the same day.
The process:
1 in-person interview on your own laptop (got response on the same day)
2 in-person interviews on your own laptop (next day response)
1 engineering manager call on Zoom (next day response)
Overall the process took about a week, the recruiter I spoke with was quick to reply to all my questions and was very helpful throughout. You bring your own laptop and set up your own environment.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Their questions are very unconventional (in a good way) and were very practical and seemed like something you would do at work, not leetcode-style questions.
There was a recruiter call where they told me what to expect for the next couple rounds. I had a call with the hiring manager and technicals with 2 other engineers.
I applied and got an interview offer in about 2 weeks. I interviewed with someone from the US even though i applied for Bucharest. A bit of introduction and HR style questions in the beggining, followed by 2 problems.
The first step is a HackerRank challenge, typically 60 minutes long, consisting of one question broken into 3 parts/sub-tasks. The question is implementation-heavy rather than a typical dynamic programming or graph puzzle.
