While you likely won't need to be an investing expert yourself (this will depend on how technical the role is), you should show a basic understanding of the industry and major competitors as they relate to this role with Robinhood. Demonstrate to your interviewer that you keep up with the industry through membership in industry-relevant groups or publications. You should have a reliable news outlet that you rely on for industry news, which you can mention to your interviewer.
