We sat down with the students from Texas Advertising Group for a Q&A covering everything from advertising and marketing to careers in the creative industry.

These conversations are an important part of building stronger connections between students and working professionals, and giving the next generation a more honest look at what it takes to build a career in the industry!

A room full of college students, a few career stories, and lots of conversations about what comes next 🧡

We were so excited to bring a room of students together for the first Texas Advertising Group meeting to talk all things advertising, marketing, career paths, and everything in between.

Our panelists shared their experiences navigating the industry, building relationships, finding opportunities, and figuring out that there’s no one right way to build a career in advertising.

Getting to connect with the next generation of creatives and communicators is exactly what our community is all about. We’re so glad we got to be part of the conversation and can’t wait to see where these students go from here!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this conversation happen. 🤘
