Yes! Generally I’m not looking for awards when it comes to juniors. Only good thinking and passion.
Of course. At that level awards are a very nice to have but not mandatory.
Mandatory is a big word, but when I hire seniors, I expect to see great work that got made (and usually, that involves some awards).

Is the work in your book good? That’s what matters.
I never look to see if a young creature has won awards. It’s just about their ideas. Can they think differently to the rest of the department?
CD and up. ACD should have some too but definitely a must for CD and up.
What is a junior to early senior creative? You mean mid level? I have silver pencils for the One Show young ones and CDs often don’t even bother looking at that campaign.
100% agree. That’s what Cannes is for too.
Awards mean nothing...plus agencies pay money for them. A real sandbox has no awards...just great work
