Can you explain what data integration is?
During the initial phone interviews, you will attend at Stripe, you'll be asked many discovery questions like this one. These are typically asked by HR personnel or managers from other departments you will collaborate with. This group of interviewers does not have a strong technical background and, therefore, will ask you more generalized questions. These are still important because answering them appropriately will enable you to get through the initial screening interviews and onto the more technical ones with the hiring managers or technical supervisors.
You can use practice questions like these to prepare for the Stripe interview. Practicing these questions aloud will help them become familiar to you and enable you to refine your answer if necessary. Practicing also creates a type of muscle memory, enabling you to quickly recall the answer to questions and communicate them to the interviewer professionally. The more you practice, the better you will do during the interview.
"Data integration is the process of merging data from different resources, enabling it to be present to the users in a single view. It is also useful for merging information from different technologies within the enterprise. Processes used in the practice of data integration include data migration, data management, data warehousing, and ITIL configuration and documentation."
