If you are a project manager on a high profile project. You have a very tight deadline that’s contingent on other teams (or else risk losing an opportunity).

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills.

This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.
