DIGITAL MARKETING INTERVIEW PREPARATION
Start with an excellent CV
Your CV is more than just a ticket for an interview. It also frames the topics of discussion for your job interview by highlighting your skills, listing your credentials, and sharing your achievements with your potential employer.
Show that you are a great researcher
Some experiences are as frustrating for interviewers as speaking to a candidate who is clearly not aware of the job – or the employer – as they should be.
Before you schedule an interview with any employer, learn as much as you can about the company.
Be comfortable with analytics
Any digital marketing role will have its measuring component, one cannot avoid it. You can work yourself with web, social, or online advertising analytics. As a result, you need to show that you are comfortable working with both analytics and interpreting them.
Remember, “classic” job interview rules still apply
- Working at a digital marketing agency is probably not the same as working at a Fortune 500 company, but there are still some aspects of it in common. Before your interview, remember that the classic “rule” of applying for a job still applies:
- Be polite and introduce yourself to everyone you meet to make a great first impression.
- Dress well (always dress at or above the standard for employers) so that you stand out as someone who takes the opportunity seriously.
- Arrive on time (or preferably 10 to 15 minutes before) for your interview and bring additional copies of your CV and reference list with you.
- Avoid bad habits such as slouching, fidgeting, chewing gum or mumbling. In the meantime, focus on keeping great posture, maintaining eye contact, and listening to your interviewer.
