I’m a publicist at an entertainment PR agency with over 3 years of experience and want to transition to an in-studio position. Has anyone made this switch before? Any tips or tricks? I’m hoping to land at Disney NBCUniversal or Warner Bros.

I am still on the agency side but have seen a lot of people go in house lately. Some just knew the right people and something opened up, others had been trying for quite a while until they finally landed something. Best tip is to start trying! Look at what those companies are asking and show how you fit there.

Thank you!

Hello all, for those working in an agency. I wanted to see what your typical client workload is? I’ve been in my role for about a year but the workload has changed dramatically without hiring help.

Can you please share:
- the number of accounts you manage
- how many support staff you have on those accounts
- how many active pitches you send per month for those clients on average

Thanks all!
