Process

  1. Hackerrank Test
  2. Phone Screen
  3. Onsite

The onsite was tough! I have been through the processes for many companies, including Palantir and Google, and I found that the bug squashing for Stripe was difficult to prepare for and highly unconventional compared to the everyday Leetcode interview.

Even so, the interviewers were all very nice, and the recruiter even emailed back even after the rejection. I enjoyed the whole process, even though I didn't get the offer.

Questions
