Hi All, I have a Stripe written case to clear before I can proceed to a Product final interview round. Does anybody have high level tips? Does the solution need to be very detailed? Is the written solution a make or break to reach final round? I am very stressed out about this one so any Do's and Dont's are appreciated. Please comment/DM! #tech #product #help
What role are you applying?
Product Manager
3 questions with multiple sub questions to be answered in 2 pages or less?
Lucky - you’ll be fine. I haven’t even gotten a recruiter to respond to my apps 😂
Not to scare you but they are very vague on evaluating these assignments. I mean I spent hours thinking about it and put my best work forward but they did not proceed any further and did not even give me any feedback.
Sorry to hear that :(
Good luck to you!
What’s your current role at Citi? GCB or ICG?
GCB, happy to connect on DM.
Good luck! I have an offer from Stripe but not for the Product role. Still debating whether to take it.
Same. Spent a weekend agonizing over the product exercise, only to be told it was good and they were happy with the performance on the interview and written assessment, but they’re not having headcount at the moment, so wouldn’t be able to schedule the final rounds now and to reach back to them in December 🤦🏽♀️ they may as well have told that to me before the exercise, or told me that it didn’t make their cut.
Sorry to hear that, not cool.
I hear the HC is frozen but Stripe is good at reaching out & connecting. One of my friends spoke with one of the teams in March but wasn’t a good match. HR reached out few months later and he got into a different & better suited team
Will any of you like to share, what kind of written assignment is this? what kind of questions. I can DM or if you can post here. I am done with first PM rounds, and expecting to hear positive response so probably a takehome assignment etc. will appreciate any help!

Written exercise is part of the process and is looked at in conjunction with your resume, HM round and first round interview. While it isn’t make or break, it’s an important step. I wouldn’t stress out much. You would’ve made many presentation and written documents/ reports in your current role. Treat it that way. Feel free to DM for more color..
Thank you!!
