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.
