In Reply To: After recieving my undergraduate degree in Finance, I worked for several years at a global investment bank. However, I found this did not suit me as a career, did some research and decided to pursue advertising. Specifically, I would like to be in Account Management. I have tried to find a position, but find a lot of resistance due to lack of experience. Any suggestions how to break into the industry, or to make my backgroup appeal to an advertising position?
Message: Their are many agency's that have fiancial company's as cliets. I would start their and then after you have worked on a financial accout but proven your skills in advertising you can move on.
