What should you expect in a Creative Director interview? Do you still show your work or is it more about management style and speaking skills?

I guess it depends on what they are looking for. Many places promote solely on talent and salesmanship but I personally want someone who is also able to manage teams and deal with issues... without causing more issues. Do you know anything about the successful CDs there? What are they like?

All of the above. You may be asked to show 1-3 projects and speak to how you got there. And they’ll ask management style and client relationship type of questions. Speaking skills, hopefully they’ll decipher from all of the questions above

I recently interviewed with Natwest and I got confirmation that they wanted to offer a role. Salary negotiations were started. However, now I got an email from the hiring manager that hiring for my role has been paused due to the ongoing cost of living crisis. He expects to resume the hiring for the role in Q1 '23 and would resume the process then. So is it the end? Honestly, I don't expect him to come back. But what do you think?

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!
