Work Experience: Advertising - Euro RSCG

Euro RSCG London, (2008)

Euro RSCG is a top ten above the line advertising agency. It is also part of the Havas world wide communications network.They work with brands as diverse as The Sun, Peugeot, Cillit Bang, Citroen, Air France, The Conservatives, and many more.

I spent 7 weeks over July and August as an intern in their London office. My role was to help out on anything that required doing (from spray mounting ads to create posters, to finding songs for their next advert, or attending radio ad recordings for The Sun). Due to the erratic nature of excess work (its always hard to tell which accounts will require an extra hand) I made the decision to get to know as many of the people in the agency as possible, so that I could maintain my work load.

This resulted in my working with lots of different people in the agency (as well as getting involved in the softball team, check out the team photo!). And so I have worked in both Planning and Account Handling as well as done some minor work for the New Business department.

I greatly enjoyed my time at Euro. It not only solidified my resolve to work in the advertising industry, but also gave me a great insight into the work that goes on in an agency of its size and importance.
