Anyone know anything about architecture?

Former Member

Hi, I have an interview next week at an architecture company for a job as an marketing assistant. Dont really know much about architecture and the job ad was quite vague so was wondering if anyone knew what architecture companies are like, what sort of marketing they would do etc etc?

Thanks!

First thing to do is to find the company's webpage or any other source of information.

You might be expected to know about what the company does, not how. If you know anything about whether its been doing well and expanding, or do they have new managers etc etc..

I think the trick is to only talk about things you know really well in the interview. If you make a comment about something you read about, make sure you can expand on it. Worst comes to worst, and you can't answer a question, why not ask the interviewer to explain the answer. That way you seem honest and willing to learn.

Here's some info on architecture

Right at the bottom there are links to a lot more information.
