Recently I finished building my book and even won a few student awards. I’m now almost at the end of an agency‘s program. Been trying to find an internship in NYC to kick off my career right after this, but it’s been tough.
I did get a couple of interviews at some great agencies I admire (I regret not applying to more), for a moment I thought I could do something but it wasn’t. I’ve been seeing MA or VCU grads getting those positions on LinkedIn. Relocation or a 60k MA program isn’t affordable

It’s hard, but it sounds like you’re on the right track. You just have to keep at it, the market still isn’t very good right now.

Also you’re never finished building your book.

What “agency’s program” are you at the “end” of that isn’t an internship? Are they not keeping you for the summer? Does this program not have some kind of placement or support for you?

Internship applications open in the early spring so you are a bit late for that.

But if you’ve graduated already, go for an actual job and not an internship.

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
