Marketing roles balance creativity and analysis. Scorecards help ensure candidates are assessed consistently across strategy, execution, and impact.
Marketing spans diverse skill sets—from campaign creativity to data-driven performance tracking. Without structure, interviews often favor charisma or buzzwords over real capability. A scorecard approach ensures you measure candidates against the outcomes that drive growth.
Adjust weights depending on specialization (e.g., performance marketing vs. brand marketing).
| Dimension | What to look for | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Strategy & Planning | Market understanding, segmentation, positioning | 25% |
| Execution | Campaign setup, channel expertise, operational rigor | 25% |
| Analytics | Ability to measure ROI, interpret data, optimize campaigns | 25% |
| Creativity & Messaging | Storytelling, content quality, brand alignment | 15% |
| Collaboration | Cross-functional alignment with sales, product, design | 10% |
For brand-heavy roles, increase Creativity & Messaging. For performance roles, bias toward Analytics and Execution.
