I’m currently studying at Miami Ad School for Art Direction in New York, but can’t seem to find a part time job. I’m still receiving interview requests for Video Investment Manager positions, but clearly I’m over that. Can someone point me in the right direction of getting an interview somewhere? It’s strange that no one is getting back to me. Thank you!

Why do you find strange that you are not getting interviews? If I understood well, you are studying yet, might not have a strong book yet (even student level). Don’t think that just because you are at MAS you will get an easier path. The direction to point is work on your book and approach people you admire, opportunities will present at some point.

Sorry the confusion, I didn’t mean actual art director job. I meant any kind of bullshit job to bring in extra income

Are you trying to find a general part time job, like waiter/waitress, store clerk, etc? Or are you trying to find a part time job as an art director?

Also check out temp agencies.

What’s a video investment manager? Why are you over it? Does it not pay better than a waiter? Sounds like something you might be able to do remotely, too.

Ah, well most of us got jobs doing retail etc outside of the industry until we finished ad school. (Because ad school is what helps make you employable in the industry.) A temp agency can help you find an admin job, that’s going to be tough to find at an agency part time, but good luck!

Maybe try looking into virtual assistant jobs you could do part-time and remotely. https://remote.co/remote-jobs/virtual-assistant/
