Interviewers will want you to take a stand and in their minds a "Hold" is not a stand. The only exception I can think of is if a stock pitch you already prepared and submitted has moved to a price where your recommendation is no longer valid (e.g., you said to buy stock A at $30 and the day you walk into the interview it is $35 and your target price is $37). In this instance you should note that the stock has already moved but if it comes back in to $30 you would be a buyer for reasons X, Y and Z.
Your interviewer might not like this and in this case will probably ask you to pitch another stock. This is another reason why I recommend you have multiple longs and shorts to pitch in an interview.
