Just an FYI, may be safer in finance as advertising is extremely over saturated. Seeing in some cases thousands applying to one position.
Lets switch places? been 3 yrs in industry now and financial growth vs responsibility graph doesn’t align well and finance us obviously more stable than advertising.
A background in analytics could take you in a lot of different directions in a lot of different industries. I would focus on that, not advertising.
Gotta love it. Everyone thinks they can go into advertising after watching all the horrendous Super Bowl ads 😂
I’d look at IT, not finance or advertising. I’m in marketing analytics.
I made this exact same switch after being in finance for 8 years. Various roles, mostly commodity trading and analytics. Don't let many of these advertising lifers bring you down. The pay to work ratio in advertising is amazing compared to finance. Not to mention, broadly speaking, your skills and analytical acumen will be well ahead of the advertising peers. Of course all of this depends on what you want. I now make double my base as a trader but of course have a cap on bonuses. IMO I chalk this up to the cost of work life balance and low stress work compared to my finance days. Although there are many other different stresses in advertising but in retrospect they are way easier than having finance honchos breathing down your neck about p and l or other bottom line figures they may hang over your head to live and die by. Could go on and on.
Would be happy to chat with you about my experiences and how I leveraged the financial analytics skillset to translate into an advertising landscape. Shoot me a DM and we can chat!
