I’ve worked at top agencies and have reached out every single time. Don’t count on people to find you.

Based on what I know about Mischief, they tend to hire juniors with student awards that showcase stunts/activations/PR or mids with experience at similar agencies.

Make amazing work. Fill your book with it. Hit up their recruiter with your book every so often until they either answer or tell you they’re blocking you. Or even better, they ghost you for the rest of your career and/or life. Realize all shops have their problems. Then pivot and be open to finding a scenario that works for you, which can happen at many shops. If that doesn’t work, leave the industry all together and go herd sheep. Anyways, those are my tips for both getting in (and getting over them if you can’t).

Just be better.

If Mischief needs talent, they find you. If you're not hit up, you're not good enough for them. Move on like I did. (They didn't hit me up)

Terrible advice. They are lean and know people that they can tap on more senior level simply because of trust but they are open for other talent

But they are not going to scan credits of every piece of work looking for people to hire if you don’t show your they won’t find you. Specially juniors that haven’t yet the opportunity to make something huge.

Add ideas to your craft. Never stop crafting your ideas. A creative thinks 24/7. All of that will show up in your work. And they’ll know.

Can you explain further?
