Hello, all.

Do ad agencies and/or marketing firms typically employ on-site proofreaders and copy editors? Do they use freelancers? Both?

Sometimes I think they don't use proofreaders at all, judging by the work they produce!

My city (Chicago, obviously), is chock-full of ad agencies and marketing firms; I thought I might try another resume blitz, this time directed toward these folks.

I really, really want a job.

Thanks.

Big agencies use in house proofreaders, yes. In Chi, try the likes of DDB, BBDO, Draft FCB, etc. The industry is kind of slow right now though...
