The overall interview rounds are ok, except that the environment setup instruction prior to the interview doesn't really match well with their real case during the interview. But overall the interview design is reasonable and I don't want to blame the rejection or my underperformances on some rounds on the interview process itself, after all the interview's performance is a combination of ability and luck. What makes me feel nauseous is the HR's attitude after the interview. I asked for this call with the HR because I have multiple other interviews ongoing and wanted to get some constructive feedback. Besides the rejection letter is very well written and it seems like they cared about the candidates and potential future opportunities, and it particularly mentions that she would be "more than happy" to have a call with me. But No. The HR started the call with this arrogant attitude saying that I can only re-apply after 1 year (emphasizes it a few times during the 5-min call) and she doesn't have much details to be shared for the interview. Who says anything about re-apply???? Come on there are tons of opportunities out there and what makes you think people want to stick with you??? This completely opposite attitude just shows how hypocrite this company is. It acts like this caring culture but in fact it's totally opposite. I guess those "rumor" about the company's abusive culture doesn't come out of nowhere.

programming, ml design, ml integration, bug squash, hiring manager chat
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe
Interview
Talked with recruiter about job responsibilities and job duties.
After about a week got to a phone screen with the hiring manager.
Mostly behavioral questions but I could see that despite my answers they kept looking displeased and back at my resume. I read a bit between the lines here…
First time in my life I’ve been discriminated against because of my age!
Don’t bother applying here if you are not in your 20’s. Just sad.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Stripe in Nov 2021
Interview
1 hour technical screen via coderpad and zoom. Python problem with emphasis on test cases and completeness.
I've got through on sites with offers from Uber, Google, Facebook, and Apple for reference.
This interview was horrific. The interviewer was completely unhelpful. He offered no guidance, no preference, and just watched me flail around with the problem. There was no discussion nor was there any interest in finding out what type of candidate I am other than developing unit testing framework for a very esoteric problem.
I'm confident in my abilities as an engineer and developer, and this was ridiculous. I was so excited for the opportunity to potentially work at driving Stripe's mission forward, but this interview has shown me a nasty underbelly of what lies within.
