Hopefully the rainbow brought on by a job will be less painful..
Hello all.
Sorry for the tremendously slow updates; a combination of Christmas and a very busy run up to the festive period left me sidelining AdGrads a tad. But no longer.
There are three opportunities to tell you about:
Publicis are running a graduate scheme that closes on the
22nd of January at 8pm. You can find out
more here. You need to send the application form and your CV to gradteam at publicis.co.uk.
Their blurb is below:
"Publicis London is looking for the most promising new grads to join our account management team. Successful applicants from the interview stage will be invited to the ADcademy: an intensive 4 day introduction to the ad industry taking place at 82 Baker Street. Here, you will glean insight from some of the best people in the business and learn what the job is all about, including pitching your idea to a real-life client.Following the ADcademy in April, some lucky grads will be offered places on the year long grad scheme to start in October 2012.
Saatchi's graduate page
can be found here. Its
Facebook page is here. It has yet to announce dates, but given the launch of the page/the relatively closed nature (you have to ask to be invited to the FB page) of the FB page in order to apply, you should sign up sooner rather than later.
As soon as anyone knows the dates, please email me at william dot humphrey at yahoo.co.uk.
UPDATE: I've been told this launches on the 19th of January, and anyone who asks can be a member of the FB group.
A few grads have alerted me to Fallon's internships. You can find out
more here. In short, you can apply for a paid 3 month internship in account management or planning, or a month's creative placement by emailing myfuture at fallon.co.uk. Planning internships are particularly thin on the ground, so you could definitely apply if Planning's something you might be interested in.
Good luck with those 3, all. I hope to post more regularly in the next few months.
