I recently moved to Los Angeles, looking for a job in a creative team on a client side. I have experience as an Art Director in BBDO and Saatch & Saatchi. Last 6 years I work as a Chief Creatve Officer in my own Agency of 45 people With clients from Fortune 500. I am looking for career shift in to Tech companies. ( Netflix, Apple, Google, ets) Help me to pack it in a right way for Hiring Manager.
Thank you so much
Fell asleep as soon as I read "world class" Also your job descriptions are in different tenses "operate" vs "grew" also you have too many areas of emphasis to be believablem
Thanks
-too long -i did a skim (which is what a recruiter) and i had ti re-read to get that you wear of the art track -for a creative...this should be more creative -make your book/website/portfolio more detailed and make this a high level -i see a lot of leading, but i’d be more impressed if you mentioned collaboration with account, pm, strat in order to lead
Thanks, very useful
Probably needs to be more bold and creative to catch their attention. How would you market yourself if you were a product?
Your resume looks like a brief, as an art director it should be creative and one page. I’d suggest taking the paragraphs out and just highlight the accounts / clients you worked on. This should be a teaser for them to want to talk to you more and ask you questions.
1. Should be a single page 2. Has way too much text 3. Missing a skills section 4. Don't think for every role you need to be as descriptive and have to mention select achievements along with a summary, the summary should contain the achievements and description of your role Also your experience 10 years ago doesn't matter as much as your experience 2 years back so you can cut down on explaining your roles from 2008 to 2012
I thought 2 pages was fine if you have 10 years experience ?
If you do it right whether it's 10 years or 20, it can be compressed to a single page. Nobody has the time to read both pages when they are screening 100s of resumes daily and most resume screening softwares tend to put a negative weighting if it's too descriptive
