Advice for Newbies – a primer from Advergirl

Now I’ll be the first to admit that there are more marketing-related blogs around these days than I could even begin to keep track of. But when one of the few that I do keep up references another one, I’ll usually take a look.

Such was the case this time.

Last week I saw a post on AdRants titled “So You Want to Work In Advertising? Read This First.” I was intrigued, so I read further. Turns out it was a reference to a piece written recently by Advergirl, who shared her version of a new employee “welcome kit” so to speak.

Take a few minutes and read through it once or twice: Advice for Newbies: Meet You New Boss. You’ll be glad you did — its a very insightful piece.
