Goldman Sachs wants to know if you are entertaining close competitors or discussing similar roles with other hiring companies. They also are curious about where you're at in your job search, and how competing offers might impact their hiring decisions. Keep in mind, although this is a similarly phrased question to what distinguishes Goldman Sachs from their competitors, what they want to know is whether you are applying to any of their competitors. They are also curious whether you are hoping to land a job with any of them, your preference, and if you want to work specifically with them. How you answer this will again allow them to gauge the sincerity of your previous answers to other questions.
