I got head hunted by their recruiters and also head hunters. The questions are basically the same for the first one or two rounds (with recruiters). Its all about how you integrate business and IT. They effectively want to make sure that you are not a down in the weeds techy.

Make sure you aren't getting hunted for an expert position. Those positions are good but they lead to non equity partnerships
