Sorry to intrude guys but I'm trying to learn--how can I get my resume looked at and (dare-i-say) land an interview at an amzing creative shop like Wieden? Or 72? Any advice from those there/familiar?

I think your first obstacle is that you grouped those two shops in the same category...

The best way is to know someone on the inside, obviously. If that’s not an option, get busy on LinkedIn. Message their recruiters and/or people in the dept you’re trying to get into.

First, name what you feel are the top 3 work from Wieden and the same for 72 in the past 6 months.

Yikes, I would not put 72 in the same category as Wieden. The great days at 72 are over. Wieden and Media Arts Lab, yes
