Deep Focus CEO Seeks 'T-Shaped People'

Thanks to the mediabistro.com mothership and Media Beat, creatives everywhere can add one more agency to their job search list: Deep Focus, whose CEO told Carmen Scheidel that his company is hiring “creatives at every level.” Contrary to common expectations, Deep Focus is seeking “t-shaped people,” who have broad knowledge and one specialization, rather than just pure specialists or generalists.

In addition, the company needs strategists and “brilliant media planners and buyers.”

“I encourage people that are looking for an opportunity to, not so much raise their profile in the industry, but really forward an idea they know to be true, we’re looking for people that believe they have something important to say and then we’ll give them a chance to back that up.”
