I am thinking of sending it in to a recruiter tomorrow and would like some advice on what I should keep, improve, or remove.

Thank you 🌸

I am on it.

You need to move to squarespace. And add a clean ‘about me’. You also need to remove all the preambles. Let the work speak. Nobody cares what the brief was. Same way no consumer cares what it was. Show us your ideas, don’t get in the way of that.

Sure as a GCD I don’t. But maybe others do, just my opinion.

^it's not mobile-friendly. sorry about that :(

That’s probably one of the things you should fix, a lot of people look at your site on mobile, even recruiters and CDs. Or at least that’s what I’ve been told.

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”
