Dear All,

I am working in a facility management company as an executive HR. The management has now requested interviews for the Marketing Manager position. Given my lack of experience in marketing, I would greatly appreciate any assistance you can provide.

If any of you could share a questionnaire for the marketing manager interviews, it would be extremely helpful, and I would be very grateful.

Regards,
