The size of my responsibilities in my recent job keeps increasing until I become responsible for not only marketing but also digital transformation. This was because I was up to each responsibility the management assigned it to me. Along with that I know how to make my team like/love me and do their best to do their job and satisfy me. I am always flexible with them unless it is needed to not to be flexible/ to be firm in some situations.

For some responsibilities, we assigned the
responsibilities
to specialized agencies that have hands-on experience in the subject matter field but it was under my supervision and the performance were managed by us, an example of that is the customer experience.

One of my believes that I learnt from my earlier employer was that customer experience strategies matter and it is the dividing line on what drives business success and that's why I applied this concept in my recent employer through all touch points for customers.

I am not disgracing my recent employer but they were lack of a high caliber who has best practices, benchmarks, and with international exposure.

If it were me I would write down some brief notes to remind myself of the major points I want to cover.

Keep it simple. Don't use too many words.

You have a tendency to bite off more than you can chew. (You might want to look that up.)

Your English isn't at the level that you think it is.

Thanks Tarheel. I will take some notes as you advised me. But I still need your support in editing these notes that I am going to take.

You need to reread post #2.

Responsibilities don't have size.

Don't overuse the passive voice.

For some responsibilities,[/STRIKE] We assigned the responsibilities to specialized agencies that have hands-on experience in the subject matter field, but it was under my supervision, and and we managed oversight. An example of that is the customer experience.

I did this once. Are you sure you need it a second time?

Notes:

- Only use quotation marks when you're quoting someone. When you are, start every paragraph with a quotation mark — not just the first paragraph.

- Avoid wordiness. Be concise.

- Be careful! ONLY criticize past employers in response to direct questions about them!

That doesn't matter.

I thought I did!
It's impossible to script a phone interview. You'll need to respond to whatever questions and comments the interviewer has.
