Toronto ad fish 🤠 I’ve spent most of my career working as a copywriter in London (6 years here, 2 years Toronto) and the market is pretty different here. I’m planning on moving back home but wondered….how do you find work in Toronto? Agencies barely post openings, is the recruiter scene strong? Is it mostly who you know?

It’s 100% in your contract that you can’t do the same thing you do for your agency for anyone else. If you get caught you can get fired for it – with cause, which means no notice no severance. Make sure that if you do it, you don’t pick up work from an agency within the same holding company (payroll see’s your name twice you’re busted) also avoid direct competitor brands to your agency’s accounts. If you do get caught you might be able to squeak by with a warning because it wasn’t a direct competitor.
Chill, mom!
Nobody has to know if you can manage your time
Curious to know if this has been done with contracts offered by staffing agencies like VitaminT, Creative Niche, Creative Circle, etc.
