Creative Director reqruitment: Missing a CD

Creative Director reqruitment: Missing a CD
Your rating: None Average: 5.8 (9 votes)

An advertising agency in Amman have targeted most of the Creative Directors in the Middle East to apply for this job (if they are not happy at their current agency ofcourse). We thought the best way to target them was to send it straight to them by post. Over 100 postcards were sent, so keep your eyes peeled there maybe one coming your way.

Date sent: April 2008

I like the idea of the letters-game. Nice. If it was sent to me, I would seriously think about joining :)

An ad agency did this?
Wow.

It was only mildly shitty when J&B did it 20 or 30 years ago

agree with phoamcor, even when I saw it for J&B in award books from decades ago, I thought: "Wow, didn't know such a cheap trick could win prizes... maybe I should go back to those first ideas..."
