What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
Don't necessarily write your skills chronologically; consider writing them in order of relevance to the position you are applying for and explain with it the application to the job.
Logistical, reasoning, mathematical, and and negotiation skills are a must, so try to show you have these skills.
Keep it to one side of A4. Overwriting is overkill.
Put something on there that'll make you stand out; people in media are a weird bunch, so throw in a curveball to make it memorable (e.g. dodgeball, speed knitting, etc.)
Do you have any interview tips?
Learn about the job you are applying for by asking people currently in the job their day-to-day tasks and overall work process. You will be asked what you think the job involves.
Read about what is happening in the industry and keep up-to-date with recent ad campaigns that are relevant to your job. You will be asked to comment about things happening now, as well as make predictions on future trends.
Have a broad understanding of prices, pros & cons, and features of various media platforms (e.g. Film costs more than TV which costs more than Radio, but all have various audiences and reach).
Go to relevant websites and swot up on vocab and data (e.g. Thinkbox, IPA, etc.)
