Relocating to Philadelphia for my partner’s job and it’s seemed like the pickings are slim to none for the last few months. A few healthcare/pharma agencies hiring but I can’t find anything else, not even in house or client side. Would love to leave agency life behind but I can’t find anything at all, am I crazy?

I think this is everywhere right now. But there’s more happening in Philly than South Florida… that is for sure. Maybe you can commute to nyc twice a week by train?

Hey, OP, I just saw two Sr Art Director roles at Digitas Health. You’ve probably already seen. And you’re overqualified. But getting a job and then continuing to look, while you’re working is the best way to go postedhttps://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4208872514

Brownstein Group is another option.

Back in the day, Philadelphia had a pretty happening agency sector, but one by one the local manufacturers and banks which were the backbone accounts either moved their business to NY agencies (that would take them to lunch at Le Bernardin) or merged and moved their headquarters out of the region. Today, aside from pharma/healthcare, the survivors are few, far between, and small.

Red Tettemer has a good reputation.

I didn’t find out until after I was hired their pay was only 8 weeks but since I have been at the company less than 12 months, I don’t qualify for their policy. Is this unfair?
