I had no prior experience with handling category(electronics) so i was asked what i know about the role, category and market. I had done good homework before hand and went with some insights i had identified eg top 5 brands, their products, product specifications, what is top selling on amazon/flipkart etc. along with basic understanding of a category buyer role. Overall interview was mostly discussion on above mentioned points.
