Try to make sure you represent both of your strengths in conversation. If one of you is quieter, that’s okay too - just make sure to make a point about showing the value you provide as a TEAM, and not as just two people hired at the same time. Good luck!

Abbot and Costello — make sure you know who’s who.

Show them your secret twin language.

Have the interviewer kick you in the shin, then see its your partner who feels the pain.

Prepare answers together:
-what recent work you like in the ad world if asked (sidenote: your answer should somewhat correspond to the type of work the agency you’re interviewing at makes)
-why you want to work there
-what type of work you want to make
-why you’re taking the interview
-what the process of working together is like
-any questions you have
-etc

For each talking point should know what your answer is and who will answer. Obviously there are questions you might have or things you might want to say based on how the conversation is going or what the interviewer brings up. I’ve been caught off guard by my partner’s answers in an interview before, and it was tricky to navigate
