One Skype interview (a not-too-difficult algorithms question), then the in-person interview.

The in-person interview consisted of:

• A simple algorithms question
• A find-the-bug question
• A systems architecture question
• A design-and-implementation question

Finally, there was a chat about company culture and the interview process with one of the founders.

Everyone was very pleasant to be around, and the food was quite good.

None of the questions were super difficult, although I did get tripped up on one for reasons that were entirely my own fault.

The most unexpected thing about the questions, actually, was how simple they all seemed.

Clearly, more than just technical knowledge is being evaluated by Stripe's process.
