"TJ, if you're looking for outrageous creativity or people to talk
marketing
with, it would be unusual to find them at a company like Trinity. Corporate
communications people tend to be rather conservative and are often former
newspaper writers. PR and corporate communications firms sometimes run
political campaigns too. Accuracy and good English are their stock in
trade, not creativity (though sometimes they can be very creative in their
spin doctoring!). The people who get paid to be outrageously creative
usually work for ad agencies.

Pardon me, Suz, as I move all your messages into my "Must Save!" folder. ;}
In a word... Gah! Thank you for all the information on Internet Startups,
Ad Agencies, and how they work.
Trinity Communications, if I get the job, might not be the -best- place for
me... but it'll be a start, and a giant step up: in making contacts,
learning about the industry, and how the web and advertising companies work
together. For me, there ain't no substitute for first hand experience. That
is why I became a contractor, seeing how the view is from the inside.
Besides, I think I do need to take a breather from contracting... It would
be good environment to soak up all the knowledge I can.... and I want to
see what it feels like being a salaried employee with all the bennies and
trimmings... Health Plans, Dental Plans...
Trinity does seem to mention that it pays for training... a "permanent"
three-or-four year tour of duty may be just what I needed to give me some
of the seasoning I was looking for...
