I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe in Nov 2021
Interview
This process was something else compared to any other process I've done before.
The hiring manager called me even before having contact with HR, to find out a potential mutual fit.
Afterwards, typical 30mins call with the recruiter which leads to a hiring manager ”tell me when” interview.
I also had the chance to talk with a senior about 30 mins about everything I was interested on.
Lastly, it's a 3-4 interviews round: a written exercise about sales acumen with its presentation afterwards, and a couple more of interviews including a role play and a behavioral interview.
Everything pretty smooth and everybody extremely nice and collaborative.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Stripe (Sydney) in Apr 2026
Interview
First round is 25 minutes long with the recruiter, followed by a mock call and email, then another two interviews from the hiring manager and an account executive. I found it all quite easy and they made the process very clean and kept everything very transparent.
Recruiter call, zoom with manager, mock call including 2 more managers
Lots of work- however recruiter makes sure you’re prepared and nothing in the interview was surprising or caught me off guard
Not a very good impression. The interview wasn't hard nor easy but the recruiter was very inattentive and the Hiring Manager in a rush. The good thing was that there weren't many interview stages for this position.

They gave me a task to prepare for a role play pretending to cold call a customer.
