Had an interview for an AS position at Force Communications and it went really well. Before the next round of interviews they sent me 2 case studies to complete. There both pretty general questions around a product launch, how you would handle it with clients, etc. Any tips for how to stand out when completing a case study for an interview?

Make sure it’s in client-ready format. A branded deck or word document goes a long way!

Good point! They did send the information over in a branded deck, I’m thinking I can utilize that

Maybe try role playing by putting the audience in the client’s shoes to kick it off…

- Here’s what you’re up against (competition, adversity, etc)
- Here’s what you must accomplish (goals - financial or otherwise)
- Here’s how/why the work saved the day (results, outcomes, etc)

Just a thought, but making it interactive vs. you talking at them will make it a bit more memorable. Make them part of the story.

Honestly for pharma ad jobs I have NEVER done an assignment. I’m not discrediting their M.O. which sounds completely valid… I just don’t do it, the same way I don’t do cover letters. The industry is bleeding for talent…

Agreed - that’s why I said the M.O. is completelyyyy valid. For me though, I still won’t do it.

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
