I too had more than 10 years of marketing experience, including 3 as an independent consultant. I had no problem getting a job with a 40-person full-service agency. I face three challenges: understanding the agency's arcane "agency process"--i.e. learning how to fill out the job forms and who to give them to, learning how to keep everyone informed about what I was doing, and learning to work with much younger people who's only work experience came from working for an agency. They really didn't understand the real world.
