Knowing how to navigate corporate settings and having confidence (that comes with age) can really help.
I would say that people listen more to Tim than to Timmy.
Desperation before getting aged out
Talent trumps everything. There’s kids who are ECDs.
6 figures, Sr CW, lions pencils clips and more all in less than 5 years
Knowing what I want, siphoning out bad advice. Taking chances that typically pay off, maintaining relationships, and being prepared whenever luck does come your way. I’m pretty sure my first Super Bowl spot I only got assigned cuz everyone else was off for the holidays lol.
Selection bias. They know they have an edge if they decide to join late.
I think there is some truth to this. I’m a CD now and I joined LATE. I knew this is what I wanted to do and I had put in a lot of work just to break in. Then I put in more work and was happy to do so knowing i had come from a different career that was boring af and ALSO required a lot of work. There’s a lot i hate about this industry but I still feel lucky.
