Standard interview process:

• Phone screen
• "Phone" interviews (actually video conference) with hiring manager and a tech screen
• 4-hour onsite (actually video conference) with sessions on "Sales and Customer Interactions," "Stakeholder Management," "Hiring Manager Chat," and a mock presentation, with a single 15-minute break for lunch.

Depending on your familiarity with the space and with Stripe's products, the recruiter recommends around 1.5 days of preparation for the presentation.

No feedback is provided to the candidate if a no-hire decision is made. After investing almost 6 weeks of time and over 2 full days of effort in the process, I only received a "didn't find a strong fit" template email. The recruiter ignored my email asking for better feedback.

Coding Test:

Web browsers present an "accept-language" header string with space-separated language plus locale codes. The server has a list of supported language + locale codes. Find all the matches in order of the browser's priority.

Next steps:

What if the string is formatted unexpectedly (mixed-case or extra spaces)? What if the browser presents just the language and not the locale? Match against all possible server languages.
