Talk to the interviewer about your strengths and be sure to highlight any specific skills that you excel in. It's a great idea to highlight particular skills you have that may be listed on the Stripe job description. If there is a related area of interest where you'd like to expand your capabilities, you can mention those as well.

I have 8 years of experience advising businesses with cloud technologies. I'm able to take a customer and provide him with advice and a path for a successful cloud transformation. Besides that, I have a strong appetite for open-source technologies. Open-source technologies are innovative and constantly improving.
Marcie's Feedback
It's great that you have so much experience in the area of cloud technologies. Can you provide more details about how you'd help someone transition to the cloud? How about including an example of a time when you've done this before? Really sell yourself and what you have to offer. Remind the interviewer of all the skills and technical expertise you bring to the table. Good job!
