ACD interviewing with agencies for CD/ACD role. Then some brand recruiter emailed me about an Art Director position. Huh? 🤔 Do they even look at your resume or portfolio before reaching out?

Nope. Also good chance they're 23 and underpaid and have no clue what any of those titles mean, or what advertising agencies even do

funny

Absolutely agree that these people don't read.

But to be fair in-house titles might be different due to their org chart. You'd have to see their experience criteria and pay.

The requirement is minimum 5 years of experience. I have 10. 🤷‍♂️
