Brutal reminder of how small our industry is: I was taking an informational interview at an in-house agency and someone who worked there happened to know me and my CCO (separately), and reported to my CCO that I was interviewing.

Director interview after super day?

Had a super day last week and I thought it went well, partner sent back a nice message to my thank you note. Trying not to read too into it, but is it normal to have an interview with another director after having already interviewed with a director (and a MD)?

I did mention I have interest in a specific area with a director last week and it looks like this next director I’m interviewing primarily works in that area.

When is it appropriate to follow up after an interview for a lateral position? Had a screener call 2 weeks ago and then an interview with the partner + senior associate last Thursday where it was mentioned that they would “likely” want me to meet more people. I’m getting anxious but don’t want to bug them!

Having trouble landing a decent job, I am 4 years post bachelors, environmental science. I can not seem to land a job above minimum wage. My last position (horticultural assistant) found myself taking on a good amount of projects that were being left unfulfilled, due to coworker politics (a few co worker’s wanted to see the supervisor fall short of expectations) in addition I had difficulty with my manager( sexual harassment) I rejected their advances, and I was laid off in December

Does anyone have recommendations for a contractor and/or small space architect in the Bay Area? My contractor ghosted me without fixing the water damage in my kitchen 😭

Whenever anyone asks how work is going I always answer with “it’s funding my lifestyle” and they look shocked. Do you guys actually have a dream job? I can’t imagine loving work everyday for the rest of my life.

Anyone have any updates on meeting? Thanks :)

How many of you roll/ use MDMA ? If so how often?

Pregnant wife is having small portion meals lately, so i asked why she is eating less than usual. She read somewhere that eating too much can lead to oversized baby, making the delivery more painful, so it looks like she may be controlling the portion because of this. Is not eating enough a cause for concern?

First year here in a quiet patch (following a very busy period). There have been a few days where I bill 0 hours, which I’m told isn’t worth worrying about in this quiet time. But how do you spend your time on days when you bill nothing? This is a major stress for me. Cheers!

Influencer Marketing remains a black box in the business. In y’all’s opinion; Who are the key players in the influencer space?! Agencies, tech companies and private companies? I want to follow companies who are doing it big and correctly

Anyone else feel like avoiding all these spots before the super bowl is an extreme sport? Maybe it’s just me, but I want to see them at game time... reading ahead takes all the fun out of it for me.

Why do all the Creatives I've come across give the rest of the agency such attitude? Get off your high horses please.

Honest question, can fishbowl actually help resolve and navigate the challenges, frustrations and realizations we face as an industry? Or more just a place to vent?

So by how much exactly does W+K NY lowball creatives? Any ranges for senior creatives or CDs?

ACD team are getting serious vibes from upper management that they're on the chopping block. They're right. Do I tell them, or just act like it's all in their heads (note: I think they should go too)

Here’s to the introverts finally getting a chance to have a little control over how and when interactions happen with others.

How many times a week do you ask yourself why you’re so terrible at advertising and why is it 1 billion?

🎉🎊 Havas New York Wins $6 Million Con Edison Media and Creative Account 🥂🍾

It’s so nice that every agency laying off people, have those left standing (and other agencies) trying to hustle jobs for their unemployed friends, but there are also a ton of people who were unemployed prior to Covid...so no severance, job hunting lot longer, and not earning income for longer time...hurting even MORE due to quarantine.

Serious question: why work in advertising if you’re not a creative? I know plenty of smart account people, strategists, data analysts etc. who would almost certainly make more money and enjoy more autonomy in a different field, or at least in-house. What’s the allure if you don’t represent the product?

Has anyone been able to negotiate anything extra or terms when being laid off?

Are there any NYC ad agencies that have flexible remote WFH policies or is everyone required to be in the office a few days a week?

Any guidance about taking a job at a social agency? Is it as bad as everyone says it is?

Has anyone tried LinkedIn Premium while on a job search? Is it worth it, would you recommend, and why?

I think I’m potentially about to be fired this week in retaliation from my boss...what should I do?

Feelings about project managers? Good, bad, otherwise?

Has anyone ever been in the position where you’re offered a job and it’s great, but it just doesn’t feel like the right time to jump? If they really like you and they’re actively hiring, is it possible to ask to be reconsidered in a year?

How long can you go without having anything to do before you get laid off?
