QUESTION 2 OF 26

Tell me about your favorite manager (anyone you directly reported to). What qualities did they have that really stood out to you?

By asking this question, the interviewer is looking at how your leadership style is influenced by others. This question also determines your attitude towards leaders, as well as the type of personalities you work well with. When positioning your response, keep in mind the type of working environment marketing agencies have and address the expectations outlined in the job description. The interviewer will want to learn how you can be a highly independent leader who is adept at delegating tasks.

"My favorite manager was my previous operations manager. She was both thoughtful and firm. She made sure that all the project managers who reported to her were trained properly before they were assigned to clients. I liked that she gave me a lot of autonomy in how I managed my project teams. She also encouraged me to explore different solutions to issues that we encountered but held me up to deadlines. I saw how well she could delegate tasks and that really inspired me to unlearn my tendencies to micromanage."
