But these days the “mail room” may be in administrative, clerical, or other support positions. One college graduate who could not find an entry level job in advertising took a job as a receptionist with a large ad agency. Within two years, she was working in her “dream job” as an ad copywriter handling one of the agency’s largest national accounts.
