How long did the Jr copywriters on the bowl spend in the role before you started considering senior copy roles? I've been in the role for 1.5 years and have been applying for senior roles, but have not heard back at all. Do you think this is just how job searching is these days, or am I underqualified?

You don’t go from junior to senior. Get promoted to a mid level (copywriter) first. Then move up to senior.

Yep. Junior 1-2. Midlevel 1-4. Then senior
So many skills you have to learn it’s not just about ideas. Presentation, communication, strategy, leadership etc

Extremely under-qualified considering you don’t know there’s a step in between.

What do you think the time between jR and midlevel should be? And midlevel to SR

^that's the answer. No one jumps from junior to senior anything. You have to put the time in first. I'm not a copywriter, but I'd guess you need probably 5 YOE minimum to start getting considered for those roles.

Yep!!

I think 1.5 years is early for most “senior” roles unless your scope has been huge. That said, applying is fine. It shows you what’s out there. Maybe target mid‑level roles or look for a shop where titles are more flexible.

Say if they got the title at a shop where titles are flexible, do you think that would help or hinder the person to jump from JR to SR so fast?

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.
