First there was an online assessment that was focused on a real world stripe related problem. It was a three part problem each building upon the previous part. Generally, It involved parsing some string inputs and then doing some operations on it.
Next was a Team Screen Round which involved basic informal discussion along with a similar kind of problem like the OA.
Then there was a technical round and bug bash round which were completely technical we had to code up solution to some real world related problem again not that heavy on DSA concepts. Finally, there was HR round which asked general HR related questions.
