    here's the ugly part in advertising:
    - clients sometimes are stupid and illogical so you have to deal how difficult their attitude is even you know what is a better solution for their brands.
    - work is demanding so you sometimes you might have to stay late nights, work on weekends and holidays, they sometimes even call you up while you're on holiday
    - there are a lot of politics, people who want to take credit of your work especially for awards, people who suck up to bosses and gets the promotion, people who talk behind your back, looking for someone to blame. It's a stressful environment so watchout for bullies from different departments.
    - lack of budget, time to create quality work.
    - some talents are exploited they give you lots more work and responsibilities, they give you a promotion that sounds nice as a 'title' but they don't compensate for it. If the agency loses the account they fire you or they fire the whole creative team who handles the brand.
    what i mentioned above varies from country-to-country, company-to-company but hey, for the most part, it's fun, rewarding, you will learn a lot, you will meet a lot of people, there's a lot of parties too, you can make money, travel. It changed my life! try different companies so you can get experience, figure out what you really want. don't be afraid to quit your job if you're not happy, there are lots of opportunities out there especially for young people, look for another one that has a culture that fits you. you don't need to be a slave in advertising.

      Wow I just read all of this and even still, it sounds very challenging and warming for me. Idk why maybe I like a little slope of edge risky situations where I have things to lose. It shows that it takes Growth, determination and adaptability to become a great advertising executive in the future. Since I was born I have always have a huge imagination from almost anything my mind set to from any topic. Especially for people that I am around they tend to listen and favor my out spoken look on things and ideas. Where do I start? I was one of gods strongest fighters last year and then he Moses me to reset my whole life to chose a career for ME!

      Advertising, particularly on TV, is one of the dark arts. It used to be basic persuasion and manipulation. But add to that political correctness and social-engineering, then one has something sinister. Anyone wanting to work in advertising has to be suspect.

    • @misterpeekz
      @misterpeekz 2 роки тому +3

      I’m in the industry and I hope I can shed some light. In my experience, bigger agencies are definitely more rigid in their selection process. Smaller agencies usually take a chance based on cultural fit and potential. I started at a mid size agency and now I’m at a boutique shop. I love smaller shops because it give you a lot of flexibility and gives you room to develop a robust set of skills outside of just your field. One crucial advice is really growing your network. I’d jump on LinkedIn and scout some agencies that you find a good fit and just try to connect with employees there to develop a relationship. Good luck on your journey!

      @@dishasarkar.haven.inkonhearts I know this wasn’t a general question, but I just graduated with an advertising degree. I’ve had public relations internships in the past. All PR isn’t the same, but a PR degree program will teach you how to write (press releases like when a new product is coming out. Something is sent to the media.)
      For advertising the best advice I can give you or anyone else is to know if you want to be a creative (art direction, copywriting) or not (strategy, media planning and buying, ad sales). If you want to go the creative way, creating commercials, social media, billboards, then try to go to portfolio school or a college that has a specific creative sequence. If you’re in the US try Miami Ad School or a school with a student ad agency.
      If you want to place the actual ads on tv that’s media planning and buying. This is $$. Selling the space for an ad (billboard, commercial space) that’s ad sales. Also $$.
      Strategy is also a good career to look into. Super creative but not actually creating the ads. Basically the concepts.
