Hey yes just completed my interview cycle at Platinion. The case can vary but basically a scenario such as a grocery store chain that is having issues with supply chain, over ordering/under ordering, distribution disruption etc how would you propose being more accurate and predictive in ordering supplies, what solutions would you put in place, how would you manage communications between suppliers and grocery stores etc. and then further drill down on each of your answers. The answers are really at the technology type level not even naming specific products (although you could if you want) i.e. saying you need an ERP, an analytics tool, a POS and such.

Hope this helps
