Research the company you are interviewing with thoroughly! In the past, I have focused on making sure I, myself, have my ducks in a row and was completely caught off guard when asked specific questions about the company I was interviewing at.

Several deep breaths to steady my racing heartbeat. Meditation to calm the nerves, and a chant telling myself that I can do this, and that I am worthy. I also have my partner practice with me. He finds some great interview questions and we have mock interviews.

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you

i don't know y i was not selected, and i think its still worth it to reach out. 1 because i think i did well in the interviews and 2 its saves both of us time - to know if i should pursue further or not. Thoughts?
