Speaking to a CCO and first time interviewing as a team. Any tips, advice, or things we should prepare for?

Am I the only one struggling to find a fully remote design job these days? I'm a graphic designer with experience in branding, editorial design, motion graphics and digital content. I've been applying for remote roles across Europe for months, but most opportunities are now hybrid, location-restricted, or incredibly competitive. I don't even need a huge salary. I just want the freedom to work remotely and be part of an international team. Any advice from people who made it happen recently?
Earlier this year, I pushed for a promotion but was told to wait until the next cycle in June/July. While waiting, I started exploring opportunities elsewhere. No offers yet but I’ve been getting interviews. My question: if I get promoted this cycle, then later receive a better offer abroad and decide to leave soon, would that burn bridges with my current agency? Would appreciate any advice from people who’ve navigated something similar.
Make sure they like you and your dynamic. If they’re talking to you, they already like your work. Your personalities and shared ambition are the final piece of the puzzle.
I would do research on the agency and the work they're doing. I would also do research on the CCO and see what work they've done, so you can bring that up as work you admire (even if you don't) and the style of work you want to be doing. Be yourselves and show that you have chemistry and get excited about the role and what you can bring to it. Ask what they're looking for in a team and what would make you successful. Good luck!
If I’m talking to you it means you’ve probably already passed the technical stuff/experience/work check. What I’m looking for is the vibe check, chemistry, personality, personal drive, passion for the work, communication skills.
