I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe (New York, NY) in Jan 2022
Interview
I only had the HR round and it was a disappointing result given that HR said they loved my profile and would move me on to the next round, only to hear a few weeks later that the hiring manager was looking for someone more "technical". I was not asked any technical questions during the HR call, so it is unclear how the hiring manager could deduce this.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral, fit, culture, previous work experience.
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.

Question 1
About products I liked, the expectation was that I would be able to talk about them with a broad product sense.
