Wondering if anyone has examples of creative director portfolios or websites that showcase leadership and impact vs just some pretty campaigns they led. As an ACD I’ve done a lot to impact organizational change and implement brand practices that have changed how we sell, etc. but those aren’t exactly sexy visuals, and it turns out no one wants to read a case study.

This is so hard - if the creatives are hiring - it’s all about the portfolio wow factor. If it’s business side - they will want to know all about that other value you bring.

I try to sum it up in my bio, but really it comes down to the interview imo

I feel the same, but am struggling to share work that I’ve done recently without diving into a full case study — which no one reads! It feels like such a trap!

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
