If you’ve ever taken a look at a spectacular ad campaign and thought, “I want to do that!” we have some useful advice that can help you turn that dream into a reality. Below are a few of the most critical things to remember, and for a more in-depth overview, take a look at our guide here.
Know what’s happening in the industry. Better yet, have a critical, informed opinion about it, and be able to discuss where it’s heading. Best-case scenario, that direction excites and even inspires you!
Make sure the experiences you discuss match the position you are interviewing for. Versatility and breadth of skills are always a plus, but those additional skills should not dominate the conversation.
No need to rent a tux and tails or a ball gown, though. Attention to detail matters when making a good impression during an interview. Keep the hygiene in check and wear something that shows you are taking the opportunity seriously.
You should do your best to determine whether an agency is a good fit for you. Do your homework and gauge the feel and flow of an agency’s day-to-day operations. You can always reach out on LinkedIn – be polite, ask concise questions and use that information to make the most informed decisions you can.
This might seem obvious, but many forget that at the end of the day, the person interviewing you is, well, still a person. Keep the jargon in check. Be conversational. Be confident. Most importantly… Be yourself! Authenticity goes a long way.
