Sample interview questions
How do you structure a full-funnel paid social strategy for a new client?

I begin by clarifying the business objective, target audiences, conversion events, budget, creative inventory, and measurement setup. I then map campaigns to awareness, consideration, and conversion stages, define KPIs for each stage, and create a testing roadmap for audiences, creative, placements, bidding, and landing-page alignment. I review results on a consistent cadence and reallocate budget based on statistically meaningful performance and the client's priorities.

Describe how you would diagnose a decline in Meta campaign performance.

I would first validate tracking, attribution settings, spend delivery, and any recent changes to audiences, creative, bidding, budgets, or landing pages. Next, I would compare performance by campaign, ad set, audience, placement, creative, and time period to isolate whether the issue is driven by CPM, CTR, conversion rate, frequency, or another metric. I would communicate the findings, recommend prioritized tests or budget adjustments, and monitor the impact closely.

How do you communicate performance results and recommendations to clients?

I focus on the business objective first, then explain the most relevant KPIs, notable changes, drivers of performance, and actions taken. I keep reporting concise and use clear context rather than presenting metrics without interpretation. Each update ends with specific next steps, expected learning goals, and any decisions or approvals needed from the client.

What paid social tests would you prioritize when scaling a conversion campaign?

I would prioritize tests that balance efficient growth with learning velocity: new high-intent and broad audiences, refreshed creative angles and formats, placement and optimization-event testing, and landing-page or offer alignment where available. I would establish a control, change one meaningful variable at a time when practical, and use predefined success metrics to decide whether to scale, iterate, or stop a test.

How would you use automation or AI-enabled tools without losing strategic control of an account?

I would use automation for repeatable work such as reporting, alerts, pacing checks, creative organization, and initial performance analysis. However, I would retain human review for business context, brand suitability, measurement quality, budget allocation, and client recommendations. The goal is to reduce manual effort while improving the speed and quality of strategic decisions.
