“How do you view the ACD role here. At some agencies it’s like a junior cd. Others it’s like a super senior copywriter. I’m cool with both but just curious what the culture is here”

What does success look like for this position?

“Whats the team structure and approval process?” You dont want to have to report into a CD, GCD and ECD, thatll be a shitshow. Ideally you report directly to the ECD.

Also ask how the client evaluates work and whether they test. Both are very important.

Ask about opportunities and challenges on the account. I’d also ask what they feel like the best work they’ve put out on that business is and why

I haven’t heard from her and it’s been 24 hours - starting to get worried. What should I do? Does this mean they’re not interested?
