There’s nothing like this on Earth. At the end of your time, you’ll experience Portfolio Review—the ultimate career matchmaking opportunity. Students go through 10 interviews a day, meeting creative leaders and forging personal connections. Some get offers right away.

A friend of mine from Portfolio Center named Scott Stripling, told me about the shop. The day before they offered him a job, he got a job offer at the Martin Agency and took it. So Alex Bogusky asked Scott if he knew anybody else and he suggested me. I went down and freelanced for the weekend and didn’t get the job. Two years later I went back and got hired after sending Alex a photo of me in a Robin from Batman costume, holding a bottle of tequila with the words, “whatever it takes.”
Andrew KellerCreative and Experiential VP at Facebook -
I saw a brand planner job opening at one of my favorite agencies but wasn’t going to apply because it required 3-5 years of experience. It was for an agency I really admired, VMLY&R, who was (and is) doing some really great work across the board. I talked to a few of my teachers from the course and Stephanie Grendzinski, who oversees the Bootcamp in Atlanta, and they all advised to just go for it…I got the job!
Suzanna MayerBrand Strategist at VMLY&R -
Be a rebel. Be a risk taker. You want to make ideas that change the world. Be the first to make something provocative. Don’t worry about being perfect—because perfect is boring.
Margaret JohnsonChief Creative Officer at Goodby, Silverstein & Partners -
Before Miami Ad School, I was pretty much without a plan. I had just graduated with an English degree and my new father-in-law was wondering what I was going to do with it. I liked design, but didn’t know much about it. I liked reading books and watching movies. But other than that, I had no idea what I wanted to do.
Brig WhiteFilm Director at Tool of North America -
I really wanted to be a creative writer and I was writing sketch comedy in college and then I found out there was a job that lets you write sketch comedy and then film it
