KWP Newspaper Job Ad

If you think the job is crap, wait ‘til you see the pay.

Freelance Studio Assistant — 3 to 6 month contract — full time.

Yes, you’ll be stuck doing a lot of crap jobs — assisting finished artists and project managers, mounting and sending PDFs, but on the upside, you’ll be working in the advertising agency behind brands like the RAA, Coopers and SA Tourism. Ideally, you’ll want to work in the ad industry, and have an interest in finished art and graphic design. Apply now, because chances are no-one else will.
Applications via email only to [email protected] by Friday 3rd August.

Never, ever use reverse psychology. 😉 

A great way to filter for candidates, making sure they’re up for the suck — no sugarcoating.

You glance at your watch.

It’s 6:28. You’ve been at it since 3.
Crap. Your hot date is at 7. Running late. Sink shower it is.
Nowhere close to done editing…

“…at least all the ideas are laid out, so there’s that. Did I miss anything? I don’t think so? Ok, but how do I make it flow? I need to get the final draft to Stacey for design asap, team cutoff is at noon Thursday…”

You’ve spent dinner completely distracted. Your date just took off. You go home exhausted, plod to your desk, and crack open the laptop.

Or… it could go like this:

5:41 — you’re out of the shower and lip-syncing.
6:17 — dressed to the nines and zenned out.
7:03 — the sunset glints off your aviators as you smile hello.
8:36 — it actually feels like you’re hitting it off. Not just hot, funny to boot.
Next morning, 10:27 — polished draft ready in your inbox.
10:31 — Stacey messages back, “thanks, looks good!”

The difference?

You had Copygloss handle it yesterday afternoon.
