Interviewing for final round with Fitbit for the Senior Global Commodity Manager position. There will be a panel presentation with a super vague topic given as "Commercial strategy influencing company roadmap". Has anyone had any interviews like this? Specifically I want to understand the approach you took since there is no case or data shared with me.

Silicon Valley bank definitely does this. Ironically someone from there liked my post lol. I’m sure they can elaborate.

Have noticed that people are more interested in discussing compensation and other spicy topics than actually helping out when fellow consultants are asking for help. And even making comments that don't help. Personal opinion.
