I saw this same post almost two years ago and here what u/primetime0146 answered

This is a riddle interviewers that can't think of their own questions ask. The answer is eat it one piece at a time. They're trying to ask what you would do with an enormous project you have and you don't  have a team to help. You effectively can't delegate the project to another team and you can't profit off of it so the burden is on you. So, in this question they want you to say something along the lines of slowly build the Elephants trust until the Elephant is a smaller, more manageable task.

Oh.  Gross.  So this is some corpo-meme for MBAs.    Googling "eat an elephant one bite at a time" turns up hundreds of linkedin posts and blogspam full of vague affirmations and crap.

Gag me with a spoon.
