Here's how you can navigate discussing your experience with influencer partnerships in a PR interview.

If we're interviewing for a role where experience in influencer marketing is required, I would want to understand how you navigate the balance between what the client wants out of the relationship and what the influencer wants on the other side of the equation. Without factoring in both you'll leave one party unsatisfied, if not both. If the client doesn't get what they want, they won't believe in the genuine power of influencer marketing and those marketing dollars will quickly be allocated elsewhere. If the influencer doesn't get what they want, an agency will struggle to build longterm relationships with genuine goodwill and rapport with influencers whose impact will hypothetically only continue to grow.

👉 Make sure to emphasize any unique approaches you took in your role that set you apart from others in the industry. 👉 Mention any specific challenges you overcame in managing these partnerships and how you handled them. 👉 Talk about the importance of aligning influencer content with the brand's voice and messaging. 👉 Don't forget to highlight any tools or platforms you used to streamline the partnership process.
