Clemenger BBDO Melbourne has welcomed the successful new recruits of its 'Exceptions to the Rule' recruitment program for 2018.
'Exceptions
to the Rule' is Clemenger BBDO Melbourne's annual search for
Australia's best and brightest talent, in line with the agency's belief
that the future leaders of the creative industry aren't solely coming
through traditional tertiary pathways.
This year's search saw 200 applications, with 10 of those being offered
full-time positions in 2018, based on their passion for creativity and
the energy they would bring in to the agency.
The 10 recruits include
a freelance writer, costume designer, actor and graduates in law,
anthropology, neuroscience, marketing and industrial design.
Clemenger
BBDO Melbourne and Sydney CEO, Nick Garrett, said that this year's pool
of applications showcased a group of incredible talent, each with
diversity in their thinking, creativity and eagerness to learn.
Says
Garrett: "This year's 'Exceptions to the Rule' program re-affirmed my
confidence in what we are trying to achieve with the programme by
removing some of the barriers presented by traditional pathways. The
talent on offer was incredible and I have no doubt the crop will add to
the culture and help stimulate a lot of diverse thinking across the
agency."
