Any thoughts on taking a class at Adhouse while interning at a great agency? It's not a necessity since I have this internship, but I've been thinking it can just help my craft. If so, which class?

I’ve found those classes are only as good as your instructor. Find a teacher who’s work you admire and take whatever they’re teaching.

If you’re already at a great agency. And it is truly great, just concentrate on that for now.

Are you worried about not getting any work produced during the internship? Working on real briefs at an actual agency is invaluable. But I’d also suggest working closely with a trusted mentor at the agency to give you feedback on spec work.

Do it. Find instructors you like, and work hard to impress them. You might find that besides a portfolio, they’re willing to help you get a good job. I always prefer hiring a recommended person, or hiring a jr I’ve worked with. It’s so much easier on me lol.

I did that 20 years ago by accident (I signed up for a class before getting a Jr. writer job). The class was with David Angelo, and it was a lot of work to keep up with both but I don’t regret it.

Agree with @ACD2, concentrate on your internship and make the most of it.
Be proactive and keep presenting as much ideas as you can to your CD or line manager. That might turn into a job offer once your internship is over.

You hired an intern in law school, trained him mentored him. Work product was great. Gave him a full time offer and he was working full time for 3 months. Set to go back in the office. He gives notice because he doesn't want to be in the city we're in and wants to move for family reasons to a completely remote firm.


How pissed are you at this?

Hi all - just joining and looking for some guidance! I am currently in an IT internship position (making pretty solid money considering) and following this summer I will stay on part time during my senior year (discussing a full-time job offer after already).

How do I advocate myself for that to my manager without sounding unappreciative of the position I’m in?

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?
