Sample interview questions
How do you approach optimizing an underperforming programmatic campaign?

I first validate tracking, pixel firing, targeting settings, pacing, and inventory availability. I then review performance by audience, creative, device, placement, geography, and bid strategy, prioritize the largest opportunities, implement controlled changes, and communicate expected impact and results to the client.

Describe how you would identify an account-expansion opportunity.

I would connect campaign outcomes to the client’s broader marketing objectives, review unused platform capabilities and audience opportunities, and identify gaps such as additional channels, formats, or measurement needs. I would present a data-backed recommendation with expected business impact and coordinate with the Account Executive on the expansion plan.

How do you explain a technical platform issue to a non-technical client?

I begin with the business impact, use plain language, and avoid unnecessary jargon. I explain what happened, what has been validated, the corrective action, and the timeline for confirmation, while offering technical detail only when it helps the client make a decision.

What metrics would you use to evaluate whether a campaign is meeting its goals?

The metrics depend on the objective: reach and frequency for awareness, viewability and completion rate for video, CTR and engagement for traffic, and CPA, conversion rate, ROAS, or revenue for performance goals. I also monitor pacing, spend efficiency, audience performance, and attribution quality to identify optimization opportunities.

How would you manage competing requests from several client accounts?

I would triage requests by business impact, campaign risk, deadline, and client commitments, then set clear response expectations. I would document priorities, communicate proactively when timelines need adjustment, and involve internal specialists early for complex technical or strategic work.
