It's strange to even call it product design, but that's what it is today.
It used to be web design, then we all got into user experience design (UX), and now we're doing product design.
It's like a weird game of "let's invent a new buzzword to justify a higher paycheck".
The crazy part is people are still doing things like it's 2007 and it's time to put an end to it.
I provide my proposed solution as well.

1. Stop Asking Veteran Product Strategy Consultants for Portfolios
0
That is: if you're asking a veteran strategist to show interface work, that is incongruent with what their value is to your company. They likely haven't designed a working UI in years and you're not hiring them to produce that anyway, so why ask for a document that won't help you make your decision?
Solution: have them provide a small series of case studies (like, one page's worth) and use that as a discussion point.
