I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Stripe (Dublin, Dublin) in Jun 2025
Interview
I was super excited for this role and prepped every interview a lot by researching the industry and the buyer persona’s. Process started with a recruiter screening, followed by a chat with the hiring manager and a mock call. There is more after this but didn’t make it that far. Clear communication with the recruiter, but unclear instructions for the mock call. I prepped for a 30 minute discovery with a meddpicc structure, to find out during the interview that only 15 minutes of our time were for the mock call. I got an email saying they decided to go forward with other candidates that they believe were a stronger match, but no further feedback was given. Upon asking for extra feedback they repeated other candidates were stronger. Quite the bummer if you’re excited about a company and are willing to improve yourself for another try if they open new roles.
Normal process of a few rounds of speaking to different people. What sets them aside is that they “ghost” you when it’s all over with. You go to lengths to prepare for these interviews to be met with silence by the Recruitor. Very unprofessional in my opinion.

Question 1
What are my strengths/weaknesses? Why I had gaps? My sales experience?
Recruiter screen super positive, but peer account executive interview was surprising. When you hear the product feedback loop is largely informal/personal and relationship based with product managers. I’m curious how the team plans to scale those insights as the head-count grows. It might be the Account Executive wasn't aligned on Stripe.
