Swarms of Applicants from Holding Companies Inundate Independent Agencies
The economy, slowly but surely, is bouncing back from the Covid-19 restrictions, and the advertising industry is no exception. A surge in hiring activity is underway, with a particular focus on independent agencies.
Mojo Supermarket, an independent agency, is experiencing an unprecedented surge of interest. Founder Mo Said, a Droga5 veteran, compared creative people to fuel for the big advertising industry, stating that they are in high demand. In an interview with Adweek, Said emphasised this point, highlighting the frenzy to hire talent, particularly noticeable in the post-Covid recovery period.
The destination of a large portion of this talent is unexpected in some cases. Traditional holding companies are also feeling the impact, with an increased need for fresh talent. Shops are adjusting their rosters and restructuring their workforce to accommodate the hiring boom.
Independent agencies like Mojo Supermarket received a record number of employment inquiries during and since the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift towards digital work and increased demand for digital marketing and content creation services has accelerated in this period.
The pandemic seems to have caused a shift in the demand for talent towards independent agencies. Marketing budgets are being allocated again, and a significant amount of talent is being sought for these positions. This hiring boom may signal a change in the industry's focus towards independent agencies.
The restructuring of workforce is a response to the economic recovery and changing market conditions. Shops are not the only ones feeling the pressure to adapt. Big advertising industries are seeking to regularly acquire fresh talent to keep up with the demands of the recovering economy.
Interestingly, independent agencies like Mojo Supermarket could be a trend among other independent agencies. The unexpected destinations of talent could indicate shifts in industry focus or demand, as the advertising world adapts to the post-Covid landscape. Shops are rethinking their strategies and embracing the changes, ensuring they remain competitive in this evolving industry.
