Honestly, I don’t get what’s offensive about this post. The role sounds like it’s mostly for social so they want someone that doesn’t think they’re too good for social. I recently had to hire for a similar role and the amt of cds that wouldn’t touch social was mind boggling. They also want a cd with experience, not an ACD who’s ready to make a jump. Not unreasonable given how the ACD title these days can mean a lot of things at agencies, and more often than not, it means super senior, not cd in training.

Agreed! Plus, they said “at least” 1-2 years experience as a CD, which doesn’t read ageist to me? Overall, better to know what you’re signing up for (a social-first role) than dupe applicants into believing something else.

IMHO, it’s the young people who want to do broadcast. They resent being stuck on social assignments.

💯. All I really wanted to do was make TV commercials, and I hardly ever sniffed a rolling camera my first few years in the business.

Not to mention we need to make broadcast work for our books.

A little too much rizz

lol no creative voluntarily wants to make social. Not even those who work in social. We all know that 90% of creatives just want to shoot a Super Bowl spot.

“Encouraged to apply” is the new PC way I’ve seen to get around age or other blatant discrimination. Social-first CD’s encouraged to apply, etc

🚨 MILLENNIAL ALERT 🚨

God forbid we get hung up on the most fun things we can make.

Well, I don’t think it’s that. It’s because you’re probably not going to be doing any broadcast in this role and if that’s what you want to do, it probably wouldn’t be a good fit.

Saw this on Linkedin. Funny the person that wrote it a writer yet the writing comes off the wrong way….
