The Ideal CandidateThe ideal candidate is someone who can operate comfortably at the intersection of business, brand, client and creativity.

You should be comfortable taking a project through:

Client Brief → Business Understanding → Communication Brief → Strategy → Creative → Execution → Delivery

Most importantly, you should be someone who takes ownership rather than simply manages tasks.
