FYI - This is my second AE role with just over 1 year of selling.
It's my final interview. Pretty cool autonomous pentest company.
My last interview is a 30 min presentation - I can present anything Id like ( I was planning on presenting their product since its easier sale than what I'm currently selling)
Details below
I was planning on doing a 15 min discovery, then a 10 min high-level demo of the product, and the last 5 mins scheduled a follow-up call with our SE to start a POV. (please feel free to provide suggestions here too)
First 30 minutes, we want you to present a solution to us. Feel free to use 3-5 slides that will help you tell your story. Sell us any product you like (most reps uses their most current product), walk us through how you’d qualify a prospect, and take the meeting from beginning to end to see if there’s an opportunity, before engaging with an SE. When the meeting starts, jump right in and treat us like you would with any prospects.
(We are a mid-size healthcare organization, located in the Bay Area. We are about 5,000 employees, and going through lots of growth with hiring and possible M&A.)

How would you structure your meeting? & What questions should I ask each individual?
Also, what's the best way to negotiate your comp plan? and any red flags to look out for?
