Anyone here know of any creatives of color who work for any of the big 4? I had a phone interview for a copywriter role with Google at the top of the year and noticed we’re missing in this space......

Just curious to know if there’s a path for black creatives who want to be hired on full time to work for any of the big tech companies within their internal creative departments. It was very difficult to find interview prep info and tips but for technical roles, there’s info/videos/tips for days. I didn’t make it past the phone interview even though it was a positive experience. Was told “not enough experience.” Any similar experiences out there?!

Many of the big 4 have talent exchanges + contract work hubs which can be a way in. Some, but very few, roles are creative
