Any ideas on pr/networking during the Covid times? No more social events, less/zero traveling and meetings... I am focusing on webinars and calls, but the best opportunities used to come from real meetings! Happy to read your experience

I've been reverting to the 'old fashioned way' of picking up the phone and shooting the shit. Especially now that the initial phase of 5-minute "wow, crazy times" call intros has slowed, people seem pretty pleased with the opportunity to have a quick chat about what they're doing personal or professional and keep connecting. I feel like I've been able to use the absurdity/uniqueness of the situation as a justification to start discussions that I would have let wait for an event/conference/dinner before.

Agreed. Really interested in others’ thoughts on this. Can we broaden the discussion to include ideas on new relationships too? I feel like I have had good/easy opportunities to maintain relationships, and even expand into new areas of work with existing clients through these times. The hardest part has been trying to get “meetings” with new prospects and get to know people with whom I don’t have an existing relationship. I know these times will ultimately result in a titanic shift in how we network, but I’d like to get ahead of the curve, and I am struggling with how to build new relationships virtually.

I have been making calls, offering to do webinars and presentations, writing articles, and forwarding emails on relevant topics to my clients. Just remind them you are there, ready and waiting, but in the meantime the calls and showing you have an interest in their personal lives during this extremely stressful time will really resonate with them. Remember, it take years to build up relationships and trust. Good luck!

I feel like working from home has been the death of my dating life. I used to at least go on 4 dates a month, and I was casually seeing a guy for a while. Post covid, I love my work-life balance but I'm never out. I can't meet people sitting at my desk, and I have no local coworkers to pull me out of the house for happy hour.

NDAs for Nannies? I was wondering how everyone who is doing some work from home during covid handles in-house caregivers? Obviously we all take all steps to protect confidential information and realistically a caregiver isn't going to be exposed to anything we do, but does anyone require an NDA just to be on the safe side? (I dont have an in home caregiver yet, but just thinking about it.)

Have any of your agencies cancelled holiday parties due to the triple threat? Ours was earlier this month before it was this bad in NYC. Heard from a friend that her agency canceled their party for this week.

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks

Has the recession (USA) really hit the IT job market in India?

Just some months back during covid, crazy salary figures were offered as relevant from Fishbowl posts.
Eg 4-5 years in a couple of tech stacks grabbing 35+ lakh as a package.

Now as read in articles
- Contracs are not been renewed as have to retain permanent employees
- Campus offers are put to hold

1. What's the current scenario with a switch?
2. What about the joiner who came at high packages?

A few months ago, there were articles about how Juniper Park/TBWA’s hand sign saved the life of a kidnapped girl in a car. But the next day, reporters asked the guy who called the cops about it and he said he had no idea what the hand sign meant, he actually called the cops because the kidnapped girl kept mouthing “Help me.” I’ve heard of agencies exaggerating sales results or click through rates in case studies, I really hope JP/TBWA isn’t exaggerating about, literally, saving someone’s life.
