When I began the interview process for the Marketing Manager role at Ferrari, I knew I had to bring more than just strong marketing experience — I had to show that I deeply understood and respected the brand’s legacy. The first step was a recruiter screen, where we talked about my background in luxury and experiential marketing, and why Ferrari felt like the right fit for me. From there, I spoke with the hiring manager, who dove into specific campaigns I’d led, my approach to working with premium partners and vendors, and how I handle high-pressure events with precision and creativity. Every conversation felt like a test of not just my skill set, but whether I could uphold the Ferrari standard — tasteful, exacting, and deeply human. It wasn’t just about being good at marketing; it was about embodying excellence in every detail.
