Is it common for interviewers to test your PowerPoint skills during onsite? Also not sure what to expect for the hiring manager round - I already had a phone interview with the hiring manager.

If you’re interviewing with Deloitte, They present you with a printed copy of a basic PowerPoint during your interview and asks you to points out errors, inconsistencies, etc. and make recommendations to make it better (less text, more graphics for example).

I’ve been working for a company for 25yrs, looking for advancement. I’m considered an SME, managing people, Vendors and working on large system conversions. Have provided long term goals. When requesting feedback I’m told I’m on the right path, no suggestions on what to improve. I asked about timelines for advancement and not being given anything concrete. Recently interviewed with another company as a Vendor Mgmt partner. Individual contributor, high visible position with potential. Thoughts?
