I interviewed, didn’t make it past the final round.

It was a few months ago for a BizOps type position. This is my takeaway: From a functional standpoint seemed like they needed me to show both strong financial services knowledge and experience working with technical and product teams.
- being a consultant in my firm’s Fin Services practice, I think I was ok there. Was able to discuss that piece decently I feel
- experience working with tech teams; feel like I really struggled here. Tech industry friends tell me that Stripe is known to be quite a technical company and I genuinely do not have enough chops / experience there.

Just my understanding of why I didn’t make it through (and thus biased for sure!)

Good luck! Hope you crush it 💯

Im interviewing there now but seems hard to crack into. My sense is being a financial services generalist just doesn’t provide enough industry-specific skills. What are your thoughts?

I only had the initial HR screen today so was a fairly basic explaining my journey interview + a bunch of information he provided me on their products. Many have only recently launched so hard to be aware of unless already using their product.

Same here am a generalist. Just called for interview too. But I see only MBB and FAANG folks there and I am losing my confidence now..

OP- DM me for questions?

Update: Was rejected after phone screen. Realistically, I think generalist/financial services consulting background may not cut it.

I’m a second year BigLaw associate that pays market. I was offered the position at a modified salary and hourly expectation due to their expected work flow needs.

Need some advice: Last year I left consulting to take a job in industry (a pay cut, but more freedom, WLB). Due to covid I switched to yet another company (same industry).

I’m so demoralized that the past two industry jobs have gone so badly. I’m starting to regret not just staying in consulting...
