Stripe Product Manager Interview Experience
Stripe · Staff
Interview process
The interview was fairly similar to other FAANG style PM interviews. The written assignment asked for a Product Assessment, but the recruiter told me that they also wanted it to demonstrate API understanding, so commentary on the API calls and error messages/suggested improvements is expected. The final interview with the hiring manager is also a potential end of process for a negative result, which is surprising.

I would make a list of your favorite products and think through use cases and improvements, and study Analytical questions. Also put together some behavioral question answers about your biggest successes and failures.
Company culture
People were nice but intense at following up, so be prepared to clarify answers (including why you chose to do things a particular way).
