Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

My first contact was with a recruiter, with whom I discussed my background, past experience, and interest in Stripe.

Following this conversation, I was scheduled for a one-hour phone screen with an engineer.

Phone Screen:

  • 45 minutes coding exercise on Coderpad
  • 15 minutes for questions.

Two business days after the phone screen, the recruiter informed me that they would not be pursuing my candidacy.

Both the recruiter and the interviewer were pleasant to speak with and answered all my questions.

Questions

Q: Multipart question involving basic operations on Strings and Lists. It was not the conventional DS&A that is the norm, but make sure you have an environment that is set up in which you know how to debug your code.
