I prepared a presentation for an interview with a sales leader, it went well and I was offered a final interview with regional manager. The sales leader I interviewed with gave me a bunch of feedback, but said to find out information about tech stack, which I for some reason, didn’t consider.

Do I roll into the final interview and play dumb or do i present and then come clean?

Anyone uses backup WIFIs at home? If so, what do you use? My home WIFI is good in general but sometimes stuck, it’s pretty awkward when I am presenting. Back in the consulting days the company gave us Verizon MIFI, and later switched to built-in SIM card in laptop. New company does not provide any of these so I’m wondering what I can do.
