A wonderful friend recommended me to a recruiter, when the recruiter was looking to place a creative.
This role is at a small agency, I’m going to be paired with a Sr. Copywriter. They’re looking for a conceptual thinker and brilliant designer, no pressure.
I have some internships and some freelance under my belt since graduating portfolio school, and a current laptop that’s running on fumes ha.
I’m intimidated, cautious, yet super grateful to finally hear from someone.
Any words of wisdom?

Congrats!! They obviously see something in your work and thinking that they like so remember that. Work hard, bring ideas that answer the brief and then some that are a little off brief/more unexpected. Gather inspiration, check out industry publications for whats out there. Mind the ego and be easy to work with:) Good luck!

What are the best responses for “a time when you led a team” in a consulting interview, for someone who has not had a managerial position (1 yoe) before? I also don’t want to use an example from undergrad so I’m kind of stuck. What are they really looking for in this question? Initiative? Impact? People skills? And how would you differentiate this vs “a time when you worked in a team”

Asked in work-life bowl but asking here as well.

I’m interviewing with a non-profit tomorrow. I have 5 YoE in non-profit marketing with 7 total for marketing. The role lists a range for compensation between $65-70k. Ideally I’d like to make no less than $75k, but am excited for this opportunity.

In your experience, should I try to negotiate up? How should I go about this respectfully? Any tips or thoughts?

Looking for referrals at MBB/S&/OW/Kearney in their Dubai/Doha/Riyadh offices for my sister since she can’t join Fishbowl. She graduated from top Canadian uni (UofT/McGill/UBC), grew up in ME and has an impressive academic background and work experience. Happy to connect with her directly.

I saw this and thought I'd share. What do you say? “Diversity hiring does not mean a lower bar for diverse candidates. They still need to interview and pass the hiring bar. Therefore, diversity hiring is not unfair to other non-diverse applicants."
