Get ready to be sooooo busy. Small agencies are fast paced, usually lack a lot of formal process, and usually have more work than people. You will learn a lot and can contribute a lot to the culture and process but be ready. It’s very similar to working in a startup. If that interests you, it will be a great opportunity.
Thank you for your insight! That’s what I thought. I don’t mind being busy, I like to be on the go anyway. I’m sure it will be adjustment to my personal life, but if the money is good, I’ll make it work. So ready to learn, GROW and try new things!
I made a made a lateral career move from media production to project management. Some of the best advice I’ve received from a recruiter is to highlight your transferable skills; so often HR is looking for agency experience as a qualification - you have to stand out from the crowd of agency lifers who have notable companies on their CV.
Thank you so much!
