How to Stand Out When Applying for an Envisage Assignment
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: we have thousands of promo staff on our database. And you are all wonderful, with a fantastic mix of skills, abilities, experience and personalities.
We are a busy agency. We constantly circulate requests for applications for all kinds of promotional work for different clients based at events and locations across the UK (and sometimes beyond). We NEED the right people in place so that the client achieves their goals.
Delivering smiles is what we do but just as we want clients to be happy, we want you to be happy too. And that means applying for an Envisage assignment and getting the gig.
Your personal brand
We’ve written about developing a personal brand previously on the blog. Aside from creating a fabulous, creative and informative portfolio, what else can you do to secure your next assignment?
RESPONDING to assignment requests
“I can do that”. “I’m free”. Or “Yes, please”. Three email responses that don’t get you anywhere. However, as we need to make a decision quickly, the Bookings Team don’t have all day to read essay after essay.
Here’s what we look for:
• Bullet point your most recent experiences, emphasising those that make you a good match for the Envisage Assignment you are applying for
• Make sure relevant experience really stands out, perfect for highlighting to the Bookings Team that you are a really great fit
• Images are also powerful, especially when clients are seeking a certain ‘look’ or impression
• Tell us how you’ll get there because this way, we’ll know if you have really checked out the venue, the location and what travel arrangements you’ll need to make
• Don’t forget – and this is VERY important – make sure you can get to the event venue within the fee being offered for the assignment
• Make sure relevant experience really stands out, perfect for highlighting to the Bookings Team that you are a really great fit
• Images are also powerful, especially when clients are seeking a certain ‘look’ or impression
• Tell us how you’ll get there because this way, we’ll know if you have really checked out the venue, the location and what travel arrangements you’ll need to make
• Don’t forget – and this is VERY important – make sure you can get to the event venue within the fee being offered for the assignment
And just to emphasise…
- Read the assignment details in full and make sure that when you apply, you emphasise how you fit the criteria
- Keep your profile active and up to date, important for the Bookings Team who will be interested in the work you have done previously (and how it will make this assignment more successful for the client)
- Make feedback as important as your application for assignments and we will all win!
