What kind of questions should I be asking in an interview for an ACD position? Or I guess what is generally expected from an ACD?

Creative director with less respect and pay.

What are you leading/who are you overseeing. How client-facing you’ll be. How much autonomy you’ll be given (who’s overseeing you). ACD has become a strange role since every agency views it differently/uses the term loosely.

like

depending on the market and the size of the agency, acd means very different things.

for some, it's a glorified senior creative. with no real additional responsibilities beyond that.

for others, it's essentially a CD role where you are meeting clients, leading business, managing teams.


do you know which type you're interviewing for?

That means you’ll be doing more work for less pay, but still a bump up from where you’re at.

If an employee mentions something disparaging or accusatory about their manager during an exit interview, how would you handle? What happens if what the employee said is slanderous and a “he said/she said” situation? I.e. employee claimed the manager made a disparaging remark about an item of clothing being worn by someone in accordance with their beliefs. If you opt to share the feedback with the manager, would the manager have a legal case against the company or former employee?

I've given the reasons why I deserve at least 30% to HR. In response to that, HR has sent 2nd offer i.e. 29 Lakhs + 4 Lakhs incentive + 50k sign-on bonus. The 2nd offer is just 18.2% higher than my current earnings. Need your suggestion, if I could still negotiate with HR to finalize deal by asking for 25% hike?
