No, but if they do I’d say it’s not what you think of it that counts but rather your reasoning and the questions you ask. Show them you can think, and add to a team! You could also show your value by adding a campaign extension “oh I love that, you could also do something similar on Instagram with blah blah blah"

Yes, same reason as BBDO1 they hadn’t made anything good in years and wanted to prove that they were still trying. Shocker - it didn’t get made and never made anything good there after I took the job

Hi friends of fishbowl! A year ago I told myself no more agencies. Then I got a job at another agency and I’m basically hating my life more than ever right now. This place is not good for me mentally and I’ve only been here for 90 days. I should’ve listened to my gut but here we are. So my question is what job titles should I be targeting as a senior project manager if I want to go to to client side?
