Does anybody have any experience or suggestions of how to go about getting into advertising?
I'm a recent graduate and very interested in all aspects of the industry, but at a bit of a loss where to start!
Any ideas welcome :)

Just keep on knocking at doors. I would also start taking the magazine called Campaign which you might have to order from W H Smith if you are not in London, which is the magazine for all the advertising world and there may be contacts in there.
