Questions to practise
Tell me about a campaign you ran. What was it, and what was your part?
Dana wants to know if you can run a campaign and explain your own work clearly.
Choose one real campaign. Say the goal, who it was for and what you did yourself. Use "I" for your part, not only "we". For example: "Last spring I ran an email campaign for a new product launch."
What were the results of that campaign?
She likes real numbers. She wants to see that you track results.
Give one real number, or say what changed. Be honest about the size. For example: "Our email open rate went up from 18 to 25 per cent in two months." A small, true result is better than a big, unclear one.
How did you measure it?
She wants to know your result is real and that you understand tracking.
Say what you checked and how often. For example: "We measured it by checking sign-ups every week." Name the type of tool, like an email report or website data, and say what you learned from it.
What did you do yourself?
She asks this when answers say only "we". She wants your personal part.
Name two or three things you did with your own hands. For example: "I wrote the emails, I planned the send dates and I checked the results each week." It is fine to say others helped too.
Tell me about a busy week and how you managed it.
Coordinators handle many deadlines at once. She wants to see how you organise.
Describe one real week. Say what tasks you had and how you chose what came first. Give one habit, like a daily list or a shared calendar. End with what happened: what was finished on time.
Tell me about a time a deadline moved suddenly. What did you do?
Plans change often in marketing. She wants to see how you react and communicate.
Say what changed, then your steps. For example: "When a deadline moves, I tell the team early and change the plan." Explain who you talked to and what you moved or dropped. Say the result honestly.
How do you plan a campaign from start to finish?
She wants a clear way of working she can trust.
Give simple steps: goal, audience, tasks, dates, checks. For example: "I break the work into small steps and check the plan with the designer each week." One concrete habit makes your answer strong.
How do you work with designers, sales or other teams?
This job connects many people. She wants someone who works well with others.
Give one real example. Say how you share information, for example a weekly check-in or a shared document. Show that you listen and ask questions. Say how you handle different opinions in a calm, polite way.
Tell me about some marketing work you are proud of.
This is a gentle start. She wants to hear what you care about.
Pick one project and say why you are proud of it. Say what you did and what changed. Keep it short, about one minute. It can be a small project, like social media posts for a local event.
Tell me about a campaign that did not go as planned.
She wants to see honesty and how you learn from problems.
Choose a real example, not a disaster. Say what went wrong, what you did and what you learned. End with what you do differently now. Stay calm and positive. Do not blame other people.

Lines to try
Let me think of one campaign to talk about.
My part was to plan the emails and check the results.
We measured it by checking sign-ups every week.
The result was small, but it was a clear change.
When a deadline moves, I tell the team early and change the plan.
Could you repeat the question, please?
Common questions
What if my results were small?
That is fine. Dana likes honest numbers. Say the real number and explain what it meant. For example, "Sign-ups went up by 40 in one month." If you have no number, say what changed and how you know. Honesty sounds more professional than a big claim you cannot explain.
Can I talk about work from another country or a volunteer job?
Yes. A campaign is a campaign. You can talk about paid work, volunteer work, a school project or a small business. Explain the goal, the audience and your own part. Give a little context if the place or market is different, then focus on what you did and the result.
What if I need time to think?
It is normal to pause. You can say, "Let me think of one campaign to talk about." Take a breath, then answer. A short pause is better than a fast, unclear answer. You can also ask Dana to repeat the question.
