I successfully interviewed there a couple years back- your experience may vary.

I was asked about what types of projects I worked, and was asked to expound in a tech domain of my choosing that was relevant for a given industry. No case. This was mgr level.

Just started a Tech Strat SC role in S&A.
Didn’t really focus too much on specific tech, more on thought leadership and advisement of a holistic tech approach, driven by ROI and accompanying marketplace needs.

Mostly asked about the work I’ve done and how I leveraged knowledge of tech into projects or discussions.

Should I complain to a firm's HR if the interviewers laughed at my answer during an interview?

I said it soo many times during OCI's that maybe it eventually sounded robotic, but for the interviewers to laugh and one to say sarcastically "nice elevator pitch", I thought was rude. Thoughts?

Are there books/articles/classes that unpack high level scenarios? Any particular agencies that are masterfuI at this? Don't think I need to get into the nitty gritty of media buying but it'd help to understand basic principles
