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
I don’t work on the creative side but the only way this is appealing is if you’re young and need a job
I wonder if this is intentionally cringe, and if this person has any self awareness
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.
I saw this. Get a good look at yourself first and a reality check.
All the requisite “no older CDs no matter how great you are” dog whistles, IMO
“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
Community Builder
Honestly I would apply to this gig.
OP- send me those apply deets!
🚨 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….
Looking for dem social creatives got dat skibidi rizz, no cap fam. Hit that bell and smash that like.
