How You Work
I need someone who loves a list and has a system for everything. Tell me about yours - what apps, tools, or methods do you actually use to stay on top of everything in your own life and work?
*
This role involves high-level work like building landing pages and editing videos, but it also involves taking out the trash, organising a closet, and fetching coffee - sometimes in the same afternoon. How do you honestly feel about that?
*
Tell me about a specific time you had to figure out something technical or complicated with zero instructions or training. What was it, and exactly how did you go about it?
*
Two Scenarios
I'm on a shoot, my phone is off, and my flight to Joburg leaves in 3 hours. The driver I booked just cancelled. You're managing my day remotely. Walk me through exactly what you do, step by step, to fix this without needing to reach me.
*
A brand partner is 2 weeks late paying an invoice for a collaboration we did. Write the exact email you would send them to follow up. It needs to be firm and professional, but keep the relationship warm.
*
