Mock Disco - Final Interview

Question

I have a final interview with a series A start up and I'll be doing a mock disco call. Standard stuff. There is a request to put together a few slides for the presentation. They are not looking at or expecting me to discuss the company or pitch anything however.

I'm debating on if I should reach out and say, I'm happy to put together a few slides, however I personally do not feel slides during a disco call is necessary or helpful.

I also don't want to cause a riff and could easily bring this up later. Should I ask ahead or leave it be until later?

Accepted Answer

Nothing wrong with putting your questions on a slide.

Answer

I'm more concerned about Series A than slides or discos

Answer

I don’t use slides in actual disco calls, but especially if they asked, I do it for interviews - I have found the standard intro, agenda (where you reconfirm timing), and next steps/questions slides generally impress and the “meat” of the preso is less important

Answer

Personally I don't use slides for disco, but if they're asking it's probably best to oblige.

Answer

Slides are fine, but DO NOT just read them.  That's a kiss of death IMO.

Answer

don't go series A in this economy.

Answer

I would do a couple slides, nothing big
