Hi everyone,

I’m a creative professional seeking advice on expanding my network and connecting with reputable staffing agencies. I have experience in digital marketing, SEO and content management. If you’ve had success finding creative roles through networking strategies or specific agencies, I’d love your recommendations. Any contacts would be greatly appreciated!

Any staffing agency will take 50% of your paycheck sometimes.. you want to avoid any and all. You’re not setting yourself up correctly in the long term. You can use them to get your foot in the door.. but then pivot quick to get out of their contract

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve
