Advancement Prospects
Advancement may be more rapid in small advertising agencies or companies, where beginners learn by doing a little bit of everything and may be given writing tasks immediately. In large firms, duties are usually more compartmentalized. Assistants in entry-level positions are assigned such tasks as research, fact checking, and light copywriting, but it generally takes much longer to advance to full-scale copywriting duties.
