I have been going through few interviews and some second interviews, non asked for past employer contact info or references. Is that a bad sign? Is it normal to ask for the info after the offer?

Yes., normal. They would make you the offer first, contingent on references.

Yup totally normal, just a formality I wouldn’t overthink it

Curious how other people’s brains work.
When you get an activation brief, what’s your process for coming up with a solid idea?

Look for cultural moments that you can adapt? Look through award show books? Scroll YouTube videos until 3am?

I know that every brief and every idea is different, but I’m more interested in the process and what you’re creative routine is to get the wheels turning.

Thanks.
