Depends: If it’s a well known agency like BBH, WK, or Adam&Eve DDB, than basically go there as a CD put in a couple years, come back to US and land an ECD gig for $300K+. EZPZ

You should honestly stay in the US unless you fancy making half to live in a city that’s definitely not half as expensive as the US. That is, unless you value the experience of living in London over money, which I did.

Thanks for these insight! Really helpful!

Depends on how awarded you are and your agency pedigree.

CD range is generally 95k-150k with some agencies paying bonuses (holding company shops).

The money isn’t as great as the U.S, but we have beanbags!

Hi , I am a research engineer , 35 yrs of age with chemical engineering background working in Delhi NCR for an oil and gas company, which is not very promising profile for foreseeable future.

I want to switch to data science and machine learning domain and probably work on solutions within energy sector domain.

Can anybody guide on:
1. Is it a good decision to make a drastic switch at this age and experience?
2. If yes, what are sources I should follow, where do I start?

Thanks every1
