The House of the Dragon finale was SO good! I’m so glad they were able to redeem the franchise. What other show deserves to make a comeback like that?

Wish me luck: I just took a job at a new agency in which I'll get paid double as the creative director for a team of 30 people. I'm ecstatic, this is my dream!

I have been promised a promotion three times now, but when the time comes, I'm told I'm not there yet. Why promise something if you clearly don't want to execute it?

Looking for some UGC gigs. I can do unboxing and demos. Rates start at $100 for a video, and $20 per photo. which is significantly lower than others in the market. Just trying to get more content creation under my belt. I specialize in social media as a director in a marketing agency, so I know what will perform. Give me a holler if you need UGC for your brands! :)

What’s the current WFH model @Merck ? Are they doing a hybrid schedule? How many days?

I realized I've been a dummy for getting a job at a creative agency and not working on my portfolio. Most of the projects I've taken on, I've done so as a way to support others without taking much credit for it. Now, a better opportunity came along and I don't have anything to show for my talent as a designer. ALWAYS take credit for what you do, even if it's not your project to begin with.

Does anyone still play video games? Guilty pleasure, but sometimes feel a bit immature doing it

Hi HR Professionals! I am revising our current employment application form. Per SHRM, I was just curious if any HR Professionals completely removed the following fields: social security number, recommend salary, graduation dates, military discharge info, race, maiden name like (Ms. Mrs. Ms), & criminal history questions. I was just curious what other Employers/HR Professional have done. Any information is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

How does everyone feel about the online SHRM learning for SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP for Certification?
Do you skip around? Do you follow the path? Where does one start?

First time poster here!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

Any warm recommendations for data buying companies?

Any guidance about taking a job at a social agency? Is it as bad as everyone says it is?

Managers - do any of you have the ability to check in on your direct reports’ webcams without them knowing to make sure they’re working? The green light next to the camera keeps lighting up on my company computer and I’m getting paranoid haha

I need honest opinions! How do you feel about agencies keeping a person on a Full-Time hourly Contract without any clear sight of offering a permanent Full-Time position?

Is it a reflection of your performance or the employer? What are the pros/cons of being contracted? Thanks!

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything. I was looking at both SHRM-CP and SPHR. Everyone that I have spoken to has the SHRM, but that’s also only looking at individuals in a small geographic footprint and within 3-4 different companies. I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks
