I have an upcoming interview for a “Strategic Creative Director” role. Any tips, suggestions or lingo I should drop to sound more strategic? I love a good insight or well-written brief but don’t think of myself as very strategic….

sprint.

The only way I can see the title playing out well is if they’re looking for a CD with a level of business understanding rather than selling ideas at all costs regardless of the business context they live in.

Don’t overthink it.
Just be able to explain why you did what you did and made what you made. Cite a customer insight or a business objective when talking about the campaign. Explain how you wanted people to feel or react when they see a logo/line of copy/etc. and why.
If they’re expecting more it’s because they’re looking to fill two roles in one job. In that case, run.

Hello Fam Law attys!

I am in my second year as a attorney, I was a FL paralegal before law school and would eventually like to end up there again. I am in a very small rural area, pretty much only solos, and no FL solos appear to be hiring/expanding at this time.

Do you think experience as a DA or PD would be valuable, with my eye toward a future in FL? Both for the skills gained, and/or as a resume piece?

TY!
