Hi Fishes.I have a H1B petition and about to get visa stamped.Petition vid for another 1 year .I need to know can Visa be transferred after interview to new employer without cancelling the Visa by current employer?

I'm currently working as a SWE and am interested in learning about the PM role and the experiences of others who switched to PM from a different role.
I enjoy customer engagement and planning/timelining work in an agile manner. These make me think I'd be a good fit for the role but I have some concerns/questions:
1. What is the pay-range compared to the average SWE pay range?
2. What skills are critical for the PM role?
3. Should I obtain Agile PM certificates?
4. Anything else I should know :)

I was released without cause today but my boss mentioned my battle with mental health and that I’m looking for other jobs before canning me. Should I address this with the board or leave it alone?

How's everyone's Saturday going? Any special plans for the weekend?

If you decide to move down a level in your next role, for learning purposes and for more wlb, is that frowned upon by future employers and looks bad on your resume? I've been think about it but haven't pulled the trigger. Also fear that getting a lower level job will be tough if they see me as 'over-qualified'. For context, this would be going from a director role to a SM or Manager role.

Hi all!

Could anyone please look at my CV and Cover Letter for IB associate roles? I need someone experienced to look at them before I start submitting.

Thanks!

Anyone else feel the customer service at W hotels is really bad?

Anyone has good knowledge of FTI Consulting's TMT practice. Recently the firm acquired Delta Partners.

For people in consulting - do you often read books about project management and motivation? Would appreciate your recommendations (preferably the ones with more than one thought for the whole brick of text 🤨).

I had a discussion with my employer about a better opportunity I received. She counter offered it. Any advise, if I want to stick to my current employer? I really like to work with my current employer because of challenging work. I get the same in new company as well. Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful?

What are the best collaboration platforms?

How did you come up with the idea of your small business? Did you buy an existing business or build one up from a single idea?

Have any of you taken "low bono" clients while working at a firm? I want to take on a low bono client or two but not sure who would get the money. This is a contract opportunity through a non profit so I'm assuming a 1099 will be issued. The per hour rate is significantly less than my billable rate. I would (obviously) like the money but my real objective is just getting experience/networking since I recently moved to a new state and don't have clients of my own.

Any insight into the vibe at Fishawack health agencies near Philadelphia?

My office is doing an eventual RTO office, but most of my team is in another state, so not really seeing the point of going. Anyway to convince them that I shouldn’t be expected to go back in if I’m on of the couple people in a different state office?

Any ideas on which communications agencies would have a significant west coast presence and strong health departments? Everything seems focused on NYC, which I’m not interested in.

I’m a 62-year-old CD. Am I the oldest living creative in the business? Just curious how many 50- or 60-plus fishies are out there

Any info on the agency Heartbeat in NY?

Thoughts on Micromass?

What’s the inside scoop on Saatchi’s PMO?

Has anyone quit their job because of a relationship? I started my job 3 months ago and now my employer wants me to move to NY. The thing is, I fell in love during the pandemic with a friend that I have known for 3 years. It's frustrating since I know I could continue my job from home. I would honestly quit my job and wouldn't mind the job search again.

Is there special experience or knowledge you'd need to be effective at a GCD level in Pharma? Or is it like any other account, just different products? I'm considering making the switch from general market advertising.

If I was a junior on a team during a campaign launch, is that something I can put in my book? I helped during the concepting phase, was responsible for keeping the boards up to date, and wrote a lot of the supporting materials (print, social etc) but obviously I was not on the shoot or the lead on writing the script. As long as I’m clear about my role is that acceptable?

Have an interview to work with a global pharma company and i have to send videos of me answering questions. Anyone had a similar interview process?

Langland NYC office, who is your recruiter?

Feeling like I’ve been “bait-and-switched”…

I’ve been interviewing at an agency with the intention of filling a Director role. Recruitment reached out soon after my last meet-and-greet interview (about 6 to 7 people total) to tell me the team thinks I would be best suited for an Associate Director role with a fast follow of a Director promotion.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.
