Placement Lecture

Finding a placement

In looking for a placement it is important to remember that you are not expected to know what to do. Best recommendations are to avoid the firms you want a placement with to begin with and practice interview and market knowledge with firms you are not so interested in.

Finding a firm or agency:
  • Free Index
This site is a list of agencies that offer placements in various firms. A great place to start with lots of opportunity and potential.

  • Pinewood Studios
This is a slightly more specific area for a number of reasons. Although this website can advertise not only the studio side of placements but it also has a large list of on site firms who specialise in various areas from animation to motion graphics, web design and beyond. As far as a placement goes this site has great potential for a more career specific student.

  • IPA
IPA or institute of practicing advertisers is a very broad and diverse site listing hundreds of firms and opportunities for placements. With such a large number of firms advertised this is a great place to start and build more market and firm based knowledge.
