Diversity in background - hopefully you’ve worked on more than one Brand so you have perspective that often times is lacking from client side only candidates.

If this is your final round then you have a good understanding of what they’re looking for. Now you have to tell them why you are the perfect fit and feed back to them what they said they need = you and then what they didn’t even yet know to ask for...
