9,765 marketing assistant interview questions shared by candidates

Before the interview they gave us a weird form, with a bunch of boxes each containing 4 character traits. It looked like this: You are: A) Persistent B) Outgoing C) Introverted D) Determined Next to each trait you put "Most" and "Least". There were about 25 of these boxes, after completing the form they ask you to add up the total number of letters you scored in each category. For example MOST: A__ 11 B__ 2 etc This may sound insignificant, albeit strange, but it's worth mentioning because I believe this was more important than the actual interview. It had nothing to do with being an account manager and certainly nothing to do with a Marketing and Advertising Assistant (which I found on Linkedin). As others have mentioned this is all about door to door solicitation, regardless of what you actually go into the office under the pretense for. They're hoping you mark "Most" in boxes that demonstrate that you will be a good salesman in the field.

They asked plenty of questions despite not paying much attention. They asked plenty of marketing questions and were basically trying to figure out if I could survive their company culture. From what I gathered it was cold and unforgiving. They didn't stop working while I was talking and asked me about the terrible reputation the company had and if I could fix it.
