A couple years ago Stripe reached out to me saying they like my background and that they want to discuss potential roles. I was working on a payments product at a FAANG company at that moment and was starting to think it’s time to do something else. So I said I am interested. Stripe scheduled an interview with Q… J… (Eng Director at Stripe). After a few generic questions about my past experiences, Stripe’s Q… J… asked a series of very specific questions about vendors/partners, API integration details, txn costs, etc. at my current company. I politely declined to answer these questions citing my employment agreement and NDA. I never heard back from Stripe again.

I signed an NDA before my interview so I can't go into details but my experience was a lot like yours.
