My biggest trick is responding “Assume you’re not interested in...” making THEM feel like the bad guy and they usually respond right away.

Haven’t tried it with recruiters specifically though, but works wonders in other situations.
“Assume you’re not interested in this opportunity. / in participating in (...)”

Usually get “Omg no sorry here’s my excuse!”

I had the in-house staffer send me an email thanking me for meeting with all if the diff peeps and they would have a decision next week.

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
