QUESTION 22 OF 25

Do you prefer to handle things yourself or to delegate to others?

This is the interviewer's way of finding out if you like to micromanage. In the marketing world, resources are often limited, so you may need to roll up your sleeves from time to time. Most likely, the interviewer is looking for someone comfortable delegating tasks to others most of the time. Assure the interviewer that despite your willingness to get your hands dirty, you are still the leader and your focus is to rally the team to complete tasks.

"I have no problem filling in for tasks, especially when working with small teams. However, I know that my role is to be the captain of the team. If we have an important deliverable and we're behind on time because of a limited number of workers, I'm happy to lend a hand if my bandwidth allows it. However, it's important for the rest of the team to understand that this isn't the norm. Team members or other resources could be missing or unavailable. Before I volunteer myself, though, I'll ensure that it's the last resort and that I've exhausted all means to prevent this from happening."
