J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Stripe (Bucarest, ) en déc. 2024
Entretien
The internship interview process is quite extensive, involving 4-5 stages. It begins with a self-administered HackerRank assessment, followed by an interview with a Stripe employee focusing on HackerRank-style questions. Successful candidates then proceed to a final interview day consisting of two interviews, totaling four hours. These interviews cover basic algorithmic and string parsing problems, as well as implementation challenges. This multi-stage process seems particularly rigorous for an internship role.
During one of my interviews, the interviewer, who was supposed to be pair-programming with me, remained on mute for extended periods. It appeared they were occupied with childcare or family matters, leading to significant delays in receiving answers to my questions. This made the pair-programming exercise quite challenging and negatively impacted my experience, especially having the implementation interview just right after.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Solve a simplified version of a problem related to organizing or processing data, similar to challenges Stripe might have encountered in the past.

Entretien
There was a recruiter call where they told me what to expect for the next couple rounds. I had a call with the hiring manager and technicals with 2 other engineers.
I applied and got an interview offer in about 2 weeks. I interviewed with someone from the US even though i applied for Bucharest. A bit of introduction and HR style questions in the beggining, followed by 2 problems.

Entretien
The first step is a HackerRank challenge, typically 60 minutes long, consisting of one question broken into 3 parts/sub-tasks. The question is implementation-heavy rather than a typical dynamic programming or graph puzzle.
