In person is not much different than video interviews. There's just more body language to read. My best advice, for any interview, is to take good care of yourself leading up to the interview (proper sleep, good food, minimal caffeine), read through the job description carefully so you really understand what they are looking for, and lock down five or six stories from your past roles that you can repurpose for all those "tell me about a time when you..." questions. Don't be afraid to pause before answering. You can even say, "That's a good question" to buy yourself an extra moment or two. Good luck!!

Hi everyone, I am getting ready for a job interview, and need to create a media plan.

What I am very confused about is that they gave me Booked Impressions (=4M), but in the task it says I should assume there is unlimited inventory. Am I supposed to use this 4M only to calculate spend, ROAS, etc., but can actually have unlimited allocated impressions? Thank you!
