Anyone had luck with applying to a now remote-only job in a different city? I personally am looking to work in NYC, but live in LA, and I feel like finding a remote job would be a good foot in the door. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Do you want a remote only job? If not I wouldn’t make an incremental step I would just apply to jobs in nyc and make very clear to people why you want to move

It’s ok, trying to enjoy the process and grow, but it does become too much at some points

OP - This is a baseline question, but have you updated your resume and apps to use your SO’s NY address? Minute detail, but I found it helpful in getting more looks when I tried to do the same.

My SO and I have talked about that a while ago, but we thought that since my coworkers follow me on LinkedIn, it would be sort of fishy to change my location to NYC from LA. I don’t have a problem putting Brooklyn, NY on my resume, but I feel that recruiters/employers will get confused when they see I work in Beverly Hills

So, I’m interviewing for a position that fits perfectly, HR likes my profile, had great conversations with them. Today I had a Panel interview with HR and the hiring manager. The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services.

Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
