Supercharging your hiring process: Your complete guide to marketing interviews

March 26, 2024

Hiring the right marketing candidate can be tough — how can you know if someone is going to perform well and fit into your culture from just one or two conversations

Putting thought into your interview stage, preparing for it carefully, and structuring it properly can make all the difference when it comes to your decision. But in order to interview a candidate for a marketing role effectively — whether you're looking for a Marketing Manager, Marketing Assistant, CMO or any other role — you first need to know what you're looking for.

Usually, marketing people require more soft skills to be successful in their roles than in other professions. This means that interviews and CVs might be less effective tools for you to really understand the candidate and just how well they might fit into your organisation.

But never fear — our psychologists and experts have done the hard work for you! They have identified the most important skills and traits for marketing candidates and developed a handy guide on what to look out for in applicants, how to interview effectively around these, and what questions you need to ask to really get to grips with culture fit.

So, download our practical guide to learn more about how to effectively plan and execute your interview stage with a marketing candidate.
