Says
Rob Harding Smith, planner at Clemenger BBDO Sydney and 2012 Clems
Grad: "I'm not from a marketing or advertising background, in fact the
only thing I knew back in 2012 was that I wanted to work in
communications. Thinking back on it, joining Clems as a grad was the
best thing that I could have done to get me to where I am today.
"Starting
in account management as part of the grad program gave me a great
introduction to advertising. It helped me understand what ad agencies
actually do, how they do it, and who they work with.
"This start
provided me with a focus of where I actually wanted to work, and where I
wanted to take my career. It's the sort of knowledge you can't really
find out until you've worked in the industry. It's a bloody fascinating
career path if you're interested in everything from media, to marketing,
to tech, to management consulting.".
To apply, candidates must
