I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe (Dublin, Dublin) in Nov 2024
Interview
1. Initial hackerrank 2. Team Screen solving a problem of a similar difficulty and topic to the hackerrank 3. Virtual Onsite consisting of three 1 hour interviews, one the same as the previous but harder, one testing ability to write code in a codebase, and a bug squash round. Didn't make it past this round but the next would've been a hiring manager phase.
