2 years, but I had to demand it. Interviewed somewhere that wanted to hire me as a senior, told them (truthfully): “I have another offer that would pay more but your agency is my first choice. Make me an ACD offer and I’ll sign”

About 5 years

What type of character are you?

And I have a question: how many years of experience total did you all have before becoming ACD

7 for me
