Answer 3

If you have a leaning towards this field make sure first that you really have that talent. It is good idea to have educational qualification for entering the field but take it from me those at the helm do not look towards your certificates except with a cursory glance. What they try to find out is whether they detect that spark in you ,however, hiddeny under ash it may be. One of my friends gratutiously sent a copy to a toothpaste company .As you know thecompanies make much of the sweet smell the paste will impart to your breathe.He picked up a scene from Kalida's Shakutalam.A bee is hovering over a flour while the heroine is standing by. The heroupbraids the bee for its lack of appreciation. He says,'If only it had one whiff of the heroine's breathe it would never go to a flower again. 'The friend.added," We don't claim that the heroine was using our toothbaste but would emphatically say that if you do you would have to be constantly on the lookout for the  bees hovering round your face.' The manager so liked the idea that je immediately offered him a job and he is now a senior manager in tje company.Try to cultivate that 'it' within you and if it is there to tend it properly.. Copywriters in most companies are very good visualisers as advertising is a visual art.
