Interviewers evaluate your experience with enterprise architecture, security governance, digital transformation, vendor portfolio management, and IT service delivery. You'll need to demonstrate business acumen, strategic thinking, and the ability to translate technology capabilities into business value. Strong candidates show executive presence while maintaining technical credibility.
