After I found a job posting at my previous employer and applied, I discovered an email from them a day earlier inviting me to apply! They do want me back! Maybe.
Have you ever been invited to reapply after being let go? Did it work?

Just making conversation. Thought other people might like to talk about it.

I have not, but a coworker at a previous firm did.

I think I should ask him how it happened.

I have in a past role. But, in the end, I was laid off after getting a promotion a few years in. It did work but I was the first to go when layoffs came around. I am grateful for experiencing that now I know what to look for if it happens again.

I was laid off almost a year ago. A few months later, my ex-supervisor asked me if I would like to go back, so they invited me to reapply. I did. That happened on February 26, and I'm still watching posts offering the position I had on every single job platform there is, and the job hasn't been filled yet. They know (management), I would go back, even with the salary they are offering now, everything is negotiable. I was laid off due to a brutal budget cut from one of our main clients at the time, not because of my performance or attitude towards my job: I loved my job. I've applied to almost 100 jobs, I've been interviewed by AI (which was one of the most discouraging and dreadful experiences in my long professional career), I've signed NDAs, I've networked, I've been taking courses and seminars to perfect my craft... I've done everything and more! They may call you back, but don't hold your breath or change any plans: keep on going and don't wait for anybody. Good luck!!

It didn’t work this time.

I'm in Silicon Valley, and been in the industry for about 15 years now. Fell into the corporate in-house role and been in those ever since. I primarily do marketing/brand design. I'd love to get to AD level, but I think my main issues has been that I rock the boat a lot and don't play the "corporate game well", piss off the wrong people. Does anyone have any advise for how to advance in corporate environement while keeping the integrity of creative alive?

Hi all,
I had a video screening interview earlier last week, got an email back couple days later and this is what the email says ( referred to screenshot below).
I replied with a date and time which is today at 1:30pm- I still didn’t get a response. Needless to say I emailed them this morning to remind them.
What to make if this ?

I’m new on the job search and still employed. I’m looking to grow further in the logistics industry.

Should I even bother applying when there are more than 100 applications?

DO YOU JUST ASSUME THE COST OF YOUR MARKETING ACTIVITIES? I am looking to allocate their cost in the marketing budget in a way that won't rely on several layers of assumptions. How do you reliably estimate the cost of different marketing activities (email, social, web, etc) when you don't have specific people or tools allocated to each function and costs are spread across many channels? Ads seems the easiest, but even then there's time and overheads... I've been looking for a reliable model.
