Things you wish someone would have told you before starting a career in marketing?

How long after you start a new job is it appropriate to take a vacation? And for what length of time?

I'm a long time prosecutor getting into the ID game and billable hours. Are there any resources out there that can help me get more effective/efficient without spending months/years learning the hard way? Some days I'm at the office 10 hours, took virtually no breaks and yet only bill 7. 🤬

Does it make sense to move from Accenture S&C Capability Network to Bain Internal Practice Consultant role at a 40% hike?

Does anyone have experience taking the Marketing Management and Digital Strategy Graduate Certificate at Harvard Extension School or other certificate? Thoughts?

4 AM Thought:

For people falling in the 30% tax bracket who are asking their in-hand salary per month, if you are just utilizing the 1.5 Lakh limit of Section 80C as well as the 50K limit of NPS and without any home loan:

Just divide your fixed yearly salary by 15.4 to get your monthly in-hand salary.

Worked for me. Do let me know your thoughts.

Can someone please suggest what interviews questions I can expect for 2 years of experience?

Did anyone recently joined Recro?

Going to an office to meet the team and see the office after being offered a position. After much thought I think it is best to stay at my current position for now. How do I go about declining an offer/ask for a day to think about it?

The US should have 1 year of paid parental leave- agree or disagree?

If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

Help - how do I fight claims by scammer healthcare providers?

I recently went to 2 different providers.

Dentist, made appt via Zocdoc to see a dentist that was in network. Another dentist at the location saw me instead who was out of network. I have text evidence they said it would be covered before visit. Claim was denied - asking for ~500 dollars.

Saw a specialist who’s office staff verified my insurance would fully cover the claim. Get the claim, says they are out of network. Owe 600.

My bank makes you fill out a form if you want to work in the office for each individual day. It’s largely empty from what I hear. What are the risks if I were to go in and “borrow” an office chair for my new apt? How about a monitor?

How much salary should I be getting?

Any good recruiters in the Product / Program / Project management space in Dubai? Active on LinkedIn but aware many smaller companies don’t post there due to the costs. Adecco has been recommended and roles look the right fit.

Let’s start this bowl by sharing our learnings: What has been you biggest learning as a leader so far?

Going for a final round interview with OW Dubai. Can anyone share their experience?

I’ve noticed that HR, when explaining why a candidate didn’t get the job, tend to lean on “You’re great, but we had candidates with more experience in [skill relevant to the job].” I do believe this is true in some cases, but it can’t possibly be for all of them.

HR folks — what feedback have you obscured by offering that line instead?

1) What is the onboarding process?

2) Will there be induction? if yes will it be online or offline? How long is the induction?

3) What all WFH claims are still available?

4) What all extra benefits can one claim?

5) On an average how much hike can one expect?

Anyone know of a Spanish-speaking catholic priest in the area that can do a wake service and burial prayer? My mom’s funeral is this Saturday and the priest we had made arrangements with can no longer attend. Any help/leads would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I am in USI GES tax at DUSI. I love my job but not my team and mgmt anymore. I'm a performer and I'm dumped with work of 2 ppl while others are searching for work. I am burned out.

I resigned and accepted a job with EY GDS with a huge pay bump that DUSI can't match but I also gave up my potential promotion for 2023.

I've been feeling bad about putting my papers down and letting go off my promotion but I am really tired. I took up this job as an escape.

Did i do the right thing?

There’s an Art Director at my job who helped with a new business pitch and came up with the WORST headline construct without consulting me or any copywriter. (Cont)

Is 2 weeks of vaca looked down upon? Haven’t seen anyone on my team do that...

Tiger Analytics has started firing their new joineers(freshers) as they don't have adequate projects. I don't know where the freshers will go as they haven't done any project as such.

This is just pathetic from organization. They are just firing people owing to failing a test of certification, for which other company gives 3 trials but they are giving only one try with negative markings
