Anyone know of agencies with good work life balance for account management? I know it can be a rarity. I’m currently applying for Account Director roles and doing my best to gauge reviews on Glassdoor. I have 8 years of digital marketing/agency experience; most recently was in a VP social strategy role client side but am looking to come back to account management in the agency world. Surprisingly the WLB client side in my experience was considerbaly worse than my prior agency

How to get interview in MAANG ??

Hello! I need some (creative) suggestions on how to do a video interview. I live in a very small 1br apartment with my husband occupying the bedroom for work during the day and a 2 yr old occupying the living area. I thought of the kitchen but it’s proximity to a busy road makes it a little too noisy to have a good call. The bathroom perhaps? Will that create an echo? I am thinking of using a backdrop so that the mess will be covered up. It will be a 30-min interview.
