I do not do free writing assessments or content pitches anymore - freelancing taught me that. I've seen my examples be used even when I didn't get the position and it felt like a ploy to generate free work from eager creatives. In this market though, the opportunity would have to be right, and I would have to be hurting.

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve
