The way an advertising or design school advertises itself must prove incredibly difficult. They have to prove the are worthy of calling themselves creative in an ever-increasingly competitive space.

Random questions:
When looking for junior talent, if a Chief Creative Officer/ECD loves your work, but the creative manager isn't so impressed, who has the say in hiring?
Also, when reaching out to these busy, email bombarded creative managers, what's the best way to connect with them? Especially when both email & phone is a failed connection.
The decision to hire should always be 100% unanimous between ECD and CM. You are kind of out of luck if the ECD loves your work but the CM doesn't. If the ECD was adamant about you, I am sure he/she could override the CM. But oftentimes, the CM knows more about workload, type of projects, daily job requirements at the junior level than the ECD, so that becomes more the CM's choice.
When reaching out to crazy busy CM's and email and voicemail isn't working. Try a cup of starbucks. Or a plant. Or some other unconventional tactic that gets their attention in an offbeat way. Heck, I was just sent a pirate's eye patch along with someone's portfolio.
