You were born to be in advertising! You love a challenge. You have a passion for delivering what clients want. You know how to solve a multitude of problems, but you don’t have multiple personalities. You are, as your mom tells her friends, "well rounded".

You've asked yourself, "Why did I get that ad?".  You're curious about how an advertisement found you, 2 seconds after you spoke to a friend about something similar.  You're a master of all things Tik Tok, Instagram Snapchat, Facebook, and have a knack for how digital and social platforms should advertise. You love working with people, laughing, and having fun! If this is you, come be our next Assistant Digital Media Planner.
