It’s quiet due to summer holidays so don’t get discouraged. You’ll see more opportunities start to appear over the coming weeks.
Thank you so much! That does make me feel better. I’m gonna keep a look out over the next few weeks.
Recruiters!
Connect with recruiters on LinkedIn. I’m not looking for work but I’ve been getting at least one message from a headhunter per week from doing that.

Dm me!
There’s never that much on LinkedIn and what there is tends to be oversubscribed or out of date.
My experience is based only on London and only at ATL agencies but a lot depends on where you want to work, what level you are and your portfolio. Most agencies don’t advertise positions that much. They reach out to people they want or go through headhunters.
My advice would be to continue to try to make contact with agencies you want to work at. Personally email creatives whose work you like and try to get your portfolio seen. If they really like you they’ll try to make room for you or, at least, keep you in mind should a vacancy arise.
So much of it is luck and timing, although the better your work the luckier you’ll be.
Also, even though many feel that they’re the spawn of Satan, get in touch with a few headhunters. Most are on LinkedIn - Unknown seem quite active, Red Sofa, LizH etc. They’ll also give you an honest appraisal of your chances.
Good luck.
No problem. Hope it works out. If not, there’s always a market for feet picks.
