Keep them talking. As about their background, area of the practice they run, where the business is headed / trends

What D1 said. Also ask him/her how things have evolved in the firm in the last few years (internally, and how they interact with the market) to be better positioned in the market. That should get your interviewer talking easily, and hopefully you’ll get some good insight about the practice you are joining

Up to you. I can see someone giving a thoughtful answer or getting defensive...?

Where do you see the firm/practice 5 years from now? How do SCs help drive the growth of a firm?

I almost got out of Pharma... A CD from a Consumer agency doing solid work reached out, and I was so excited thinking I could finally do the kind of work I love. Then they told me they will fill the position with a current employee. I played it cool, but I can’t deny I felt frustrated. I don’t wanna do healthcare, but it seems like it’s the only thing available in NYC nowadays. I also don’t have many connections in this city. So, IF you need an ACD/Art (full-time or FL-to-perm), let’s chat! 🙌🏻
