Creative Noggin's Podcast

We wish the title of this episode could be "How to Break into the Ad Industry without Really Trying," but the truth is, Creative Noggin CEO Tracy Marlowe tried. We mean, really, really tried. But as her job title suggests, she eventually did make her big break. Listen in as she, and Communications Specialist Heather Rosenquist, share their experiences getting their foot in the door in the ad biz. This is a good listen for anyone on the job hunt and in particular anyone looking to make their career in marketing and advertising. Also, for folks who are just plain curious about career paths and what people will do to get the job they want.
