Lunch ‘n Learn Part II

When an interviewer asks you this question during a job interview, do you know what they are really wanting to know? Does this question turn you into a deer in headlights or bring out a boring speech unraveling your entire life story? This question is not a trick question and is not meant to throw you off your game. It’s a way for the interviewer to gauge how you think, how you communicate and how you articulate your experience that is relevant and interesting. To prepare your answer (yes, you should have this well prepared in advance), listen to what executive creative directors Blair Caplinger of Blair Caplinger Creative Direction and Michael Taylor of Clarity Close have to say about this key interview question and what it is they advise from years interviewing top creatives.

The answer may surprise you!
