good luck, it's a very saturated market. your best bet is to cold call recruiters, CDs and anyone else you can get a hold of. if you get some responses, try and actually go there for a week and talk to them in person. it shows you're serious

The problem with (local) agencies is often that in order to give you a Visa you have to make a certain amount (more than they would pay a local CW). So for the same money they can hire a more senior CW.

My bet would be to focus on the agencies with international clients / budgets and use your native copywriter skills as an advantage.

Hi,

I'm a senior creative (copy) based in Paris.

I'm French, I speak English (despite a weird accent), I’m nice to work with, and most importantly I have ideas.

Big ideas. Small ideas. Fun ideas. Smart ideas. And even silly ideas.

Ideas ideas ideas.

I've spent more than a decade in some good French agencies and now I'm looking for cool projects with foreign agencies.

I'm about to end a 1 year stint at W + K London and I'm looking for an AD to partner with on my next gigs.
