Thank you for the in depth information on your experiences and what they are looking for. You nailed all of my questions. Best of luck with everything. I'm sure you're having a blast in New York by now. Connecting with you on LinkedIn now!
a specialized video on salary discussion. An indepth analysis on the finesse/fine touch to mood shifts and direct subtlety it takes to execute a stern approach to salary ranges. also identifying what to expect and how to gauge what a position is worth would be a good skill to breakdown. juicy stuff, also that this is probably the most emotionally challenging topics to discuss, knowing that you are demanding an amount of 'survival tokens' in exchange for one's services - in simpler terms, talk about indirectly asserting the statement: 'give me more money and heres why'.
Hi! Thank you so much for making this video! I have a question tho, what would you recommend would be the best education for this job? In your experience, how often were people with College diplomas (vs bachelor's degrees) able to get hired at agencies. I'm really between getting a diploma or getting degree. I would appreciate your advice in this area. Thank you again!
Hi There -- I think the more education you can get the better and I think one thing I have learned in marketing is that you have to be a live-long learner. Bachelor's vs. College Diploma: I think this is tricky, 5 years ago I would say Bachelor's, but nowadays many tech companies, for example, are going away from a 4-year degree and replacing requirements with "or relevant experience". If you are in the position where you can get a bachelor's I would recommend, especially if you want to work with big advertising agencies & clients. However, you could do the college diploma and if you are a self-starter and really hustle maybe you could get a start a small agency and work your way up. If you are in a big market like NYC, where there is a massive pool of college graduates, it is in your best interest to get a 4-year degree so you can me the most competitive candidate. Hope this helps!
Hi Zaryn, I quite liked your video and your tips are indeed quite helpful but I'm still unclear about one thing. What happened before the interview stage? Please do you have any advice on how to land interviews at agencies? In your case did you apply via an online job board, or a recruiting agency, or were you referred to the agency and what worked the best? I'm struggling to get anyone to give me the time of day and trying to work out how I can improve my chances so your experience would help me quite a bit. And if you wish to tell me privately, we could converse over email. Thank you.
Hi There -- Great question! To get interviews it is really two things (Resume & LinkedIn profile). When jobs are posted, recruiters are looking to match candidates based on experience and skills for the role. Recruiters are looking to see that your resume and/or LinkedIn profile match what the Job Description says. When you are not getting interviews and you have been applying at many places it could indicate 1 of 2 things: 1) you are under-qualified, which I am sure is not the case, or 2) your resume/LinkedIn is not properly optimized to demonstrate the experience you have as it relates to the Job Description. I made a video about doing this on LinkedIn specifically for getting jobs. Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/vgD7PT9QY64/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps!
Hi.. i am sindhuja. I would like to know what is the probability of some one to get in to an ad agency as an ad director.. will a degree in film production do or are there any other pre requisites.. kindly answer me.
Hi There, honestly I can't give you a definite answer because there are a lot of factors: Experience (years), the variety of clients/projects, Knowledge & Technical expertise, etc. However, I am certain that if you research Job Descriptions for the position you will find a trend in what ad agencies in your market/region are looking for. That is where I would recommend to start, another option is to reach out to professionals on LinkedIn and become curious on their career growth (i.e. Where did they go to school, what companies did they work at, which titles did they have at the start of their career, etc). Anyways, hope that helps! Also, here is a video that talks about how to Optimize your LinkedIn profile to get greater visibility to recruiters looking to hire: th-cam.com/video/vgD7PT9QY64/w-d-xo.html
I didn't have any experience working in a marketing/ad agency but I had worked as a teller at the bank, and a few other retail jobs. In lieu of this, a lot of college students opt-in for internships to build up more relevant experience. Also, I had the fortune of starting my own production agency while in college which exposed me to content marketing and social which was jumping off at that time. However, it's all how you can connect the dots to position yourself as a great candidate with what you have.

How to set an appointment in job advertising?
huh?
So if you didn't have any experience when you got your first advertising job, what did you put on your resume?
I didn't have any experience working in a marketing/ad agency but I had worked as a teller at the bank, and a few other retail jobs. In lieu of this, a lot of college students opt-in for internships to build up more relevant experience. Also, I had the fortune of starting my own production agency while in college which exposed me to content marketing and social which was jumping off at that time.
