Ensure that you've done your homework beforehand and can speak confidently about Plaid's history, mission, and products. Interviewers can easily see if you've done adequate research and preparation before the interview or if you know next to nothing about the company. Make sure you become familiar with Plaid's website and secondary sources that provide useful information about the company. In addition, if you're already connected to an employee of Plaid, reach out before the interview to have a quick coffee chat about their role and experience with Plaid. You don't need to be an expert, but you should be well-versed in Plaid's products and services and what will be required of you in this role.

"I understand that you began as a start-up in 2013 with the mission of democratizing the financial services space through technology and have now attained Series D level funding. The Plaid software allows users to connect their financial accounts to the fintechs that they use. For example, in my personal finance life, Plaid connects my checkings account to an external robo-advisor. Beyond the basics, though, I'm especially drawn to your company culture at Plaid. From what I've heard and read about, there's a significant emphasis on the connection between team members and community building, whether that's through coffee chats, book clubs, or the internal hackathon that the Plaid team organizes."
