Coach
Keep going, keep trying.
When I started my career no agency would give me a chance, literally zero agencies. I didn’t go to ad school and I didn’t know anyone in the industry. So I started doing freelance design work, just like making flyers and whatever job I could land to make money while doing as much spec work as I could just to have something in my book. I eventually landed an internship and proved my chops there on the first brief. That snowballed and I’ve been fortunate enough to work at some cool places.
This biz is tough but not impossible. If you can’t build a book with school/agency projects, make your own. They don’t even need to be advertising related, just make sure there’s an idea and your way of thinking about something shines through.
My DM’s are open if you want to chat privately and ask whatever you want. Chin up!
(cont.) Would you lay low and focus on your book? Or would you be reaching out to people for informational interviews instead?
Some things are in the works for the Jr. Creatives bowl. Stay tuned.
