I used this company in Warsaw Poland for 5 Samsung TVC spots. Editorial thru finishing. They created a CG bald eagle for one spot that flew into a treehouse where a family of 3 were chilling. All 5 spots had heavy vfx. They nailed it and were very affordable. https://xantus.tv

I work with a great one out of South Africa. Would that work? I can send you a reel if that’s helpful.

Vetor Zero/Lobo in São Paulo. There is a NY office

Mute Animation Studio, in London I believe.

Globetrotter based in Sao Paulo does pretty nice work. Haven’t worked with them, but worth a look.

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?
