With the certification coding challenge, Stripe is automating performance-based certification that uses real world daily tools to provide as close to a real work experience as possible. Using an open source platform, the self-serve coding challenge takes 30-40 hours on average for a developer to complete and contains incremental milestones to track progress.
“Stripe has done something truly unique and innovative. Their candidates love this certification, and with the automation they implemented, they are able to scale to meet the needs of their developer community.
