Are entry level copywriter positions a thing of the past? I understand the crunch a lot of agencies are going through but it seems that nabbing cheap creative and bringing new people in is never coming back.

Friends what's the recruitment process for BCG?

Thoughts on Micromass?

How is the United States Delivery center? They are recruiting me for that. Good or bad? anything to be aware of?

How common is it for writers to go to the video shoot they co-wrote? If they aren’t invited, and the CDs go instead, is that a leadership perk or an insult?

How do you say “buy this product” in a headline without saying “buy this product”?

Sincerely,
A Junior Copywriter with a shitty brief and an even shittier turnover time 😭😭🥹

I’m a copywriter and I’m shite at writing cover letters, which makes me feel like a fraud. Any other writers feel this way? Any advice?

Anyone doing NaNoWriMo this year?

Jumping off a related topic: am I delusional to not care about jr/int/sr level titles? I've been a "copywriter" since the day I started and steadily gained responsibility, autonomy, and money. Happy with career progression, always getting juicier assignments, work directly with ECDs/CCOs... am I missing something crucial? Is my case an anomaly? Or is it okay not to push for a title upgrade?

My AD is weak at comping/photoshop and admits it’s not their strong suit. I believe it’s hurting us. Wwyd?

Do creative directors have the power to ignore their copywriters and go with their own ideas?

RANT: People re-writing a cw’s stuff has always been painful. These days it’s far more common than when I started. It’d be one thing if they upgraded the work. If I learned from it. If I genuinely seethed with envy over their wit w/that perfectly placed semi-colon. People can’t re-art direct stuff bc they don’t know the programs so they ask the ADs for changes. Word and a keyboard made everyone think they can write. Which they can’t. Google Slides is Google slip ‘n slide into (bad ref. here.)

Hi. I’m looking for a CA, OR, or WA-based writer who’d write blog posts for a product / lifestyle site about weed and west coast weed culture. Needs to be otherwise professional & willing to use name

If that’s your Art Director, then why is he in my google doc?

Sick of writing emails client-side all day and can’t seem to get into an agency. What’s another career path for a copywriter? Getting too old to try and become a teacher or anything.

Any copywriters (in branding/otherwise) currently report to a strategist instead of a CD? Trying to have an open mind about them approving copy without judgement but it’s like pulling teeth for me.

Tips for how to start off on a good foot at a new job? Also on how to balance that with taking ownership of the work/asserting yourself, especially when the people there are used to you freelancing (which was less assertive, and similar work but a lower title)… thanks!

Am I particularly uptight, or is writing meant to be done alone, without a partner talking to you? With past partners, we chat through script notes and then I go off to execute. Current partner likes to sit and chat as I write. To me, writing is crafting a conversation. So I can’t talk to you and simultaneously talk to this audience. Of course I can just say “I’m gonna go write.” But since we’re both CD level, I’m like…is this his first rodeo? Maybe other writers are different though.

What about using 3 one-word sentences as a slogan? I feel like it’s super played out, but I get suggestions for it all the time. Can’t we do better than mashing together words from the crestive brief?

How old were you when you started as a junior copywriter?
