Graduates told career prospects are bright for the communications industry
Agencies need to do more to attract and develop young talent in the industry, and those who do are doing the best work, agency bosses told Mumbrella360.
As GroupM ran the M Grad Project at the event, designed to give graduates insights into careers in the communications industry, Maxus CEO Jon Chadwick argued that it was a good time to start a career.
He said: “Don’t just think about it as a job, think about it as a journey. This is the starting point today. Please don’t have anxiety because you have got great careers ahead of you.”
Im curious about what those in the industry are looking for. Im around 40’sh going through a career change (currently at University). Obviously Im not young (but young at heart) with life experience. Would you look at me or past me in the communications industry? What about an article about mature age workers remember your demographics are of all ages and therefore the workforce should represent that.
