Media Buyer interview questions shared by candidatesHow could you get the information you want from an individual over the phone who you have no prior interactions or connections to?
1 Answers↳
I find it very helpful to be positive and befriend people over the phone, and establish relationships with individuals, especially if I will be making repeat calls. One time in school, I wanted to take a specific professor for one of his classes, so I e-mailed him prior to class starting, because his class was full. I was able to speak with him and tell him why I wanted to take the class, so eventually I was let into the class. Less

How Trivago makes their money and Pros and cons of digital x terrestrial channels for a campaign (I think those were the only specific question). The rest were open questions such as accomplishments in your work experience, how do you organize your work/tasks, what you like doing or dislike doing, etc.
