I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe in Jun 2021
Interview
I was reached out to and had an initial screening by a recruiter. The first round was two 45 min "Product Sense" Interviews with a PM which occurred over two different days.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. You have been hired by an Airline consortium and been giving a budget of $1m to change the perception that Air Travel is not enjoyable - what would you do?
2. You have been hired as a CPO of a small bricks-and-mortar Supermarket chain that has no online presence and has seen declining revenue over the last 5-10 years. What would you do?
Went through recruiter screening and first case interview. Case interview was tough, relies on you having rehearsed a structure and practiced a lot (which I didn’t). Open ended, and very vague.
Advised that the process was 5+ weeks long. Lots of stages. Seems bloated and slow - not promising if you want to join a fast moving company.
Did the assesmsent first, it was straight forward, string parsing and authentication question, was very long, Make sure to understand the question properly before you start. It took about 40 mins to type my code out, didnt have a lot of time to debug afterwards
Recruiter is very clear about process. Interviewing is very time consuming. There are various phases. Screening is the first step and then you go into the interview cycle where various elements of the PM role are analyzed.

About products I liked, the expectation was that I would be able to talk about them with a broad product sense.
