Best ways to improve leadership skills? Trying to build up the skill set for a PM role and I have next to no manager/leadership experience. What are the do's and don'ts of leading a product team, (or any team) and the traits you'd most want to see or have as a leader?

Do all PM interviews have case study and strategy questions? Have you had an interview where you weren’t presented with them? I have two panel interviews with the same company coming up and was just curious!

Hi! I have many years of experience in Compensation and Benefits (HR) strategies to attract, retain and motivate talents in big corporations. I want to find a way to bring solutions for startups and entrepeneurs that are already in the need of such support for their own companies. I want to find ways to bring meaningful and practical solutions at reasonable costs for these organizations. Any ideas on how to become aware of their specific needs? C&B, talent management, performance appraisal.

Alright grill me I don't care. But I matched with a guy on an app and we have great conversations. However, after going on a few dates with him, it's obvious he looks nothing like his pictures. He has grown his hair out a lot and grown king facial hair and it's just not what I was into when we matched? I really thought he looked different and something about his hair being long and so greasy makes it hard for me to be into him. I know I sound awful but what do I do / say?

Just got a job as a communications specialist in government, but I come from a marketing agency background. Any advice, things I should teach myself, professional certificates/affiliation recommendations? I want to focus on developing in-demand skills early on in my career. TIA!!!

Is it worth it to go back to school for a better track to a FAANG company? The division I’m currently in seems like there are no good opportunities, and I have the funds available to finish my undergraduate full time (Canada).

Anyone know of a fast track program for status on American Airlines or is it just the challenge you have to pay for?

If you could work at an agency for the rest of your career, would you do it? Or do you see being a professional creative as a means to another career altogether?

If you were offered a job at a great agency but working on just one brand, but it was a big one like Nike or McDonalds, would you do it? Being siloed sucks, but maybe worth it for a big account?
