Have any of you worked a senior position remotely? Is it really doable? I’m especially interested in how mentoring junior creatives could work. If so, how did you get the most out of the position?

I did it for over a year and a half. It was a special situation and doesn't happen often. I made it work for me and quite liked it however you will not he a good mentor. I had several interns and a junior and it's hard when you can't physically see them (they lose sense of urgency at times) and don't get that face time. It's just not the same doing things over video chat and they feel like it's less of a relationship no matter how often you are in contact. Also you go on less shoots and don't get as much visibility in the office

That’s kind of my fear. An agency really wants me and doesn’t mind me working remote, but I just have a feeling that it will be more of a hassle than it’s worth
