A Professional Experiance Proposal

To gain a placement at an advertising agency I plan to send curiculum virtues to a number of advertising agencies that I am particularly interested in. Ontop of that I plan to network to gain contacts within the advertising and marketing industry in order to expand my knowledge on what the real world advertising adgencies are like to work within.

Today I sent off a few letters and CVs to various companies in Birmingham; because it’s close to my university, Manchester; because it’s close to where I come from. Here’s a list of places I sent letters to:

Synergy, Birmingham

OWB, Birmingham

HTDL, Birmingham

Fluid, Birmingham

Big Cat Group, Birmingham

BJL, Manchester

Cube Creative, Manchester

Adzmedia, Manchester

Head First, Manchester

Pixel8, Manchester

Media Vest, Manchester
