I’m up for a role Droga and not sure if I should take it even if I want to leave the industry?

After some time, I’ve come to realization that I don’t really want to work in advertising. But I just got offered a good role at a great shop.

My goal is to enter the music space and use what I’ve learned in strategy to better support artists and labels. I’m up for a role like that but if for some reason that does not come through, I feel like I should take this role cus it’s a good name. But idk

If you don’t have a well known shop on your resume yet, I would consider taking it. But if you already know you want to get out of advertising, then you should take your time on the job hunt to ensure your next role is in the music space. Have you checked out Spotify?

You can always come back to advertising with Droga on your resume. I agree, if you dont have a big name on there yet, do this one.

Also, sorry to be crass but this music thing doesnt sound like youll make much money. Might be nice to have a nest egg. (Can you do music stuff on the side while at Droga?)

Take the job. It won’t stop you from pursuing your dream job. But it will put droga on your resume, which will own doors.

Don’t believe me? Look up on LinkedIn how many people at Spotify used to work at droga.

this is also what i was thinking somewhat - working somewhere so high-profile could definitely give you clout when networking w/ people in music. also, OP, check out The Digilogue if you’re interested in a career in music - tons of cool opportunities listed in their job directory practically on a daily basis!
