Is it common for an Enterprise Account Executive to transition to a Customer Success or Account Management role?

Is Droga5’s Account Manager role equal to AS elsewhere? If I have 2.5 years experience as an AE, does it make sense to interview for an AM role there? Or opt for an AS opp somewhere?

After 10 months of standing by my agency while being underpaid, I’m ready to move on to an AE role at a PR agency with fair salaries. I’d love to work with non-profit or B2B clients.

After 10 months of standing by my company while being underpaid, I’m looking to move on to an AE position at an agency in NYC with proper salaries. I’d love to work with non-profit or B2B clients.

Is it possible for an AE to transition to a Project Manager position or would I have to start as a Project Coordinator first?

I need opinions on this.
Just started a new PM role (at an IPG agency) last month but I recently got hit up by a recruiter from another agency (WPP agency) for a pretty enticing PM role on a 360 AOR account. Further context: The PM role I'm in currently is my first PM role ever (I came from an entry level AE/Producer backgrund)
I know jumping ship for the other PM role would look terrible but tell me why you would OR would not jump ship?

Hi! I recently graduated in May last year, and I took a role as a junior account executive. I’m currently looking to make the switch over to strategy, so anyone that can give me any helpful tips for creating my strategy portfolio or interview tips would be greatly appreciated!

Looking to pivot to a new agency to get exposure to different clients/type of work; due for promo from AAE to AE (1.5 years as an AAE) but won't come for another ~6 months at current agency - know they think I'm ready but company not in a position to promo yet. Any tips as I consider this change? Agencies doing great work lately to look into?

SalesForce folks, a recruiter reached out for an opportunity to interview for a AE position in my specialty. I noticed there is also an opp available locally for a Strategic Account Manager in my vertical as well.
Any one know of pay difference between the two, responsibilities/expectations, how they are viewed in the org itself?
I understand they are different but in my job today, I handle both roles so can go in either direction.
Appreciate any input.

I work at tech company as a strategic account executive and make 115k. Would it be hard to get a job at google as a account executive? How is AE role at google? What’s the comp like?

I have a couple interviews coming up for an Account Executive position. What are some questions I should expect to be asked? I'm mostly anxious about the situational/behavioral type questions

Has anyone here worked at or know somebody who worked at Freshbooks? Interviewing for an AE role there and wanted the opinion of someone who’s been there.

I’m interviewing for an AE position at a smaller agency, about 80 people. Looking at people’s profiles that work at this agency on LinkedIn, it feels like I have more experience than all AEs there and match more with SAE levels. I know I applied to an AE position, but could I ask the recruiter about having an SAE title? Is that a bad look?

Thoughts on Edelman Seattle? I saw an AE role I’m interested in. I have a couple friends who work in the Chicago office and they enjoy it.

Would you accept an offer from a direct competitor for a 20% bump & promotion from analyst to associate manager if that role was a 12 month contract? (assuming it’s a T2 in tech ae. Salesforce, Adobe, etc)

I have round 2 of an interview this week with an Internal Operations Director for an Account Executive role. Is it looked down upon to ask the recruiter who set up this interview what kinds of questions I may be asked? I want to prepare as best I can but have no idea what kinds of questions I may be asked

Anyone have an idea of what salary expectations are realistic for a sae role that is now fully remote but will support nyc business?

for context i’m currently an ae in chicago so i just want to know what to expect. near the end of the process, hoping to get an offer and just don’t want to be surprised. thanks!!

Any advice on best approaches to countering an offer? Have been offered an AE position but would like to counter for SAE based on my experience (3 years). Also my current agency is planning to promote me to SAE in Jan.

How do you guys deal with burnout? This job was amazing when I started and the pay is good, but I feel like I’m being ground down a little more every day. I’ve been applying to AE jobs elsewhere but I’m competing with everyone who’s been laid off at this point I’m happy to get a rejection instead of being ghosted by the hiring manager. Any tips on getting out of this mindset? I feel trapped.

I have year’s experience as a Corp Comm AC and am looking to step into a AAE/AE role at a new firm. Any tips or openings would be greatly appreciated!

In the past six years I’ve grown from an intern to my current position in an average-sized agency (~80 people) in a medium-sized market (Southeast). I’m starting to look for the next opportunity, but not sure how to best position myself and what job to look for. I develop creative myself, with extensive skills in photo/video, Lr, Pr, Ps, Ae and C4d, I manage a team, develop concepts, pitch to clients, pioneer innovations, build case studies & have two masters. What am I & where should I look?

We are hiring an AE! EComm experience a huge plus, HubSpot/Klaviyo experience preferred. Fully remote for now and foreseeable future. DM me for more details!

Would there be any PMs interested in speaking with me about their career including: certifications earned, software experience, skills needed to succeed, etc? I'm thinking about making the move from Advertising Account Executive to Project Manager, but don't really know what online resources are fruitful for that position.

Looking to go onto the Brand side from an ad agency. I’m currently a senior account executive (4.5year exp) hoping to secure a position as associate brand manager. Should I aim higher, and how much salary range should I ask?

Does anyone have experience with/know about Appian and account executive position?

Apologies for all the questions but I need advice. I’ve been in media buying for 2 years and I’m hoping to transition to accounts. I interviewed with an agency who told me I would have to come in as an AAE vs AE. This position would be a 10k pay cut for me, is it worth it? Could I come in as an AE or do I have to be an AAE first to get experience? Thanks!
