Calling all college students aspiring to be advertising professionals! Sounding the whistle to all collegiate advertising, marketing and journalism professors and faculty members looking to connect with the Kansas City ad scene!
While November 14th may seem like it's ages away, the reality is that we're less than two weeks away from opening online registration for the 2011 AAF-KC Career Day. While we're busily pulling together our speakers, presenters, portfolio/resume reviewers and more -- all culled from the cream of the crop of KC ad pros -- we thought we'd take a moment to offer some early details on what to expect.
The biggest news? Our new location for this year's Career Day will be held at the historic Kansas City Union Station. But wait! There's more. Read on...
