Any tips on searching for ACD Copywriter positions? I'm mostly seeing Senior Copywriter or Creative Director positions but it's rare to find something in-between.

Had to take a senior position (I’ve been an ACD writer for a few years) due to little to no ACD spots available. I’d rather be working and paying bills than “searching for my level” in vain.

i see like 15 of these postings a year, maybe, and am also looking. i genuinely don't think there are that many.

In the same boat. Unfortunately, I think these roles are typically internal hires.

I was put into PIP in my first company. I believed my manager said that it's only for improvement. I signed it. Later realized it's a termination plan. So I quit the company. But after 5 years I got a call from my First company HR for another role, I was happy to take that opportunity. But later HR called me and said they couldn't proceed for some reason. Am I black listed because of PIP? Please share your insights.

I’m currently in a lease admin type role, in commercial real estate. I make a base salary of $50.5K with about $9k in bonuses. I’ve continuously received 7-10% raises over the last 3 years. I anticipate getting a promotion this year and would like to get closer to $60k for my base salary. I’m the only person in my role at the company and have been a key person in developing our team as we look to expand. Is this unreasonable? Is there a normal increase given with promotions? Thanks in advance!
