“So,
Caroline. Why don’t you start by telling us about yourself?”
I
sip my vanilla soy latte, taking a moment to carefully construct my answer.
“Well, I’m Carrie. West Coast born and raised, but I’m always following opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.
I’m a born marketer and a creative free spirit, with a passion for all things
digital and social media. Especially social
media,” I smile brightly.
The
blonde interviewer—Amy? Annie?—with the French manicure smiles encouragingly. Nailed it.
“Alright,
Caroline. It’s a pleasure to meet you. Carousel Media is very excited to be
interviewing you for this new position within our company. Now, can you
elaborate on what part of the Digital Content Strategist role speaks to you,
particularly at Carousel?”
I
nod confidently. I am poise. “Yes, of
course. Carousel Media is a company with a proven track record of excellence
and high standards. I read about your recent decision to do away with the
sandwich shop in your staff cafeteria and only source organic, vegan options
for the new kale bar—I love that. Kale is my favourite food!”
