TBWA\Melbourne is on the hunt for ambitious, brave and relentlessly curious talent with the launch of its 2024 Fresh Fries Program. The paid, entry-level apprenticeship is designed to offer a foot in the door to Australia’s creative industry.
Now in its fifth year, Fresh Fries gives successful applicants an opportunity to taste test and learn the ropes of the agency’s core departments – business management, planning, creative and project management/production, as well as a stint at sister PR agency Eleven. The Melbourne-based program is full-time and will run for 12 months.
With diversity and inclusion at its core, the initiative sets out to challenge conventional internships by opening its doors to all walks of life with no industry experience or prior education necessary.
Successful candidates will not only have an appreciation for bold and brave creativity but will be able to recognise how to harness it to solve everyday problems.
“We’ve had huge success with Fresh Fries since launching in 2019 and have been able to offer 80% of talent a full-time gig. What are we looking for? Those who show the most creative and disruptive thinking. We’re pumped to meet this year’s candidates,” said Matt Stoddart, executive creative director at TBWA\Melbourne.
To kick off the process, applicants will be asked to answer one simple question so TBWA can get a flavour of who they are and how they think.
Applications are open until 12th November, 2024.
If shortlisted, individuals will be invited to TBWA\Melbourne’s office to participate in a group task and interview on the 18th of November.
