Hi Sneakerheads, I head up creative Talent Acquisition @ VANS, The North Face & other iconic lifestyle brands owned by VF Corp. Our in-house agencies are seeking CW’s & AD’s. Happy to review books.

Heyy does anyone have any tips for an entry level media planner? I graduated last year and landed a FT offer at an agency. I’ve been working from home for almost a month now and honestly it has its pros and cons. Not only is it harder getting to know your team, but there haven’t been much guidance from my manager and the lingo takes some time to get use to. I guess I just want to learn as much as possible and give off good impressions. Since everything is wfh I’ve been feeling anxious. Thanks!
