It’s absurd

Make them talk about themselves have a lot of questions prepared and be upto date on current events in your field. If your interviewing with Directors and Partners it looks like your at the point they want to see if you're the right fit for their team.

The more they talk about themselves the happier they'll be and the less you have to say. As always always be prepared for technical questions and to explain all your experiences/ skills

There’s only a handful of them. Depends on which of the partners and directors you’re talking to but most of them don’t have more interest in the buzzwords P1 mentioned than they’re forced to. They care about what you’ve done and what you can do, little else.
