Seems like WK cares about that more than your book, or at least almost as much

Slightly frustrating because my hobbies are fairly generic and not really book worthy

It’s never helped.
Side hustle culture died a very well justified death years ago.
Oh, that’s your OnlyFans?
Helped me with a career change!
Side gigs have given me the opportunity to work on cool projects that my full-time gig couldn’t provide. Passion projects can help round out your portfolio.
Immensely!
- team sports - not just skills and teamwork, but also something to bond with during interviews.
- freelance creative work - organizing assets, meeting deadlines, following up with clients at the right cadence, etc.
I don’t think they guaranteed me a job, but definitely gave me skills I could talk about that weren’t on my resume and allowed me to bond with some interviewers because we had common interests
Fortunately and unfortunately yes. Was passed over at wieden years ago because of a lack of them. Years later was hired because of them.
I’ve always been all about the extracurricular activities.
I agree! Wieden also gives us resources/time/money to make them happen, at least in my experience. I get it’s harder at an agency that looks for it, but doesn’t support it.

They haven’t.
They have helped me make rent and buy food in the face of years of effective pay cuts.
My side projects totally changed the course of my career. It inadvertently became my great escape from agencies, and was able to work at two of my dream jobs.
Not directly, but it did save my sanity when I was stuck on a shitty account a couple agencies ago.
It’s literally the reason I’m in this industry. I owe so much to my side hustles, but they’re more integral to my identity than being an ad copywriter.
Not at all.

Not even a little bit
