Interviewing with a CEO for a job I really want. I’ve interviewed with the team including the person I would be reporting to, and they are all routing for me. Thoughts on prep?

Then you’re almost there. CEO is a chemistry and fit test. Would (s)he imagine putting you in front of senior clients and staff alike? Are you a good fit with the team and client? Be prepared with a rundown of your experience/feedback of the process, the people and the agency. Prepare a handful smart questions that would make the CEO stop, think and talk. Good luck.
