I have a roles/responsibilities question. In a big agency, how involved does a Creative Director typically get in creating strategy? My hubby & I both work in mid-size agencies and have different opinions on this, so I'm curious what the norm is. Is the CD present for focus groups? Do they conduct stakeholder interviews? Do they draft any kind of POV on audience insights, persona motivations/challenges? Or are they basically handed a brief, and THEN they translate that into creative insights?

Anything else that I should keep in mind during the interview process that helps me land better role/salary? TIA.

Adoptable dogs on beer cans: copy or coincidence?

Motorworks Brewing in Florida did this years ago, and now Uncommon just did the exact same thing for Brewdog beer.
