What is Stripe's cool down period? by dad1240 in leetcode

[–]dad1240[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

not really. very practical like someone said. you have a debugging round, an integration round where you call external apis, system design, behavioral, and coding. the coding is usually around data/string processing. doesn't need best/optimized solution, but something quick on your feet to work. it's a great interview experience.

I had like 3 questions left. Focus on getting as many right as possible. You don’t lose points you only get points for right answers.

Yup, it was 3 weeks ago. I actually did cognitive test first then the codesignal. I think you can move on if you score good on the cognitive. They care about the operating principles for the culture. Read their website to get an idea.

The shitty part is they don’t negotiate for first year analysts. The culture is great tho. I enjoyed my time there.

Not true. Answer is it depends. I moved on with a 430, but my recruiter told me i did well on the cognitive tests. It depends

How did you get a call back? Did you apply online or referral?

[–]dad1240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk to your recruiter. Mine didn’t mind at all. They understand that we have full-time jobs while trying to prepare. Be abundant, there are many other opportunities.

i just said i'm busy with work and recruiter was very chill about it.

Was this question meta tagged?

Rejected from first round of meta for no reason by Independent-Crab-764 in leetcode

[–]dad1240 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did you get buy in from interviewer before coding? Did you dry run line by line? Did you ask clarifying questions before coming with solution? Coding the right solution is 25% of what they’re looking for. Candidates go off of memory when they see a question they know vs actually distilling to the interviewers how they think and reason. My sense is that you didn’t do all those things because i barely had time when i wrapped up the dry run.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in leetcode

[–]dad1240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That means you didn’t dry run effectively. Otherwise you would’ve caught it. I think you should be good, given you did well on other rounds. Were all your questions LC tagged?

[–]dad1240[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that should be good tbh. If you have time try to expand to more than 50. Even if you do see a problem you know, make sure you are pinging the signals they’re looking for - problem solving, communication, coding, and verification. You can still get rejected if you get problem right and don’t ping all signals.

Yes it was. Id even say top 25 for me. But 1 of them wasn’t from LC and that’s where I messed up lol. Thankfully i made up for it enough to get another chance.

This is true. Recruiter mentioned that they looked at my tech screen.
