"So why do people want me to work for them?" I asked myself, proud of having saved money on an interviewer in these cost-conscious days.
"That's a good question," I riposted, to gain time.
"Thank you. Do you have a good answer?"
"I have three answers. First, I bridge creative flair and marketing knowledge. In other words, I'm highly creative, but I never forget that my work is all about giving the client a good return on investment."
"Yes, that's a pretty good answer. And the second?"
"I work on high-end projects, delivering innovative ideas and executions that meet the exacting demands of online advertising."
"So tight deadlines don't faze you, then?"
"I laugh at tight deadlines," I said (in a deadpan way, but with a twinkle in my eye).
"And the third reason?"
"My experience. I've worked as art director and digital futurist at agencies including Ogilvy, Leo Burnett, Saatchi, Poke and SapientNitro."
"Well, that all sounds compelling to me. Flow Bohl, thank you for your time."
"Thank you."
