Curious if anyone who works at Digitas Chicago knows if you’re going back to the office soon? I have an interview coming up but I’m currently based out of state. Is it looking like remote work is a possibility or would I be expected to relocate soon? I’m open to it, but not sure if I would be able to for a few months... but I also wouldn’t mind being permanently remote.

 There has been no official date announced yet regarding our return to office, but they are hopeful that it might be in the fall. I feel like everyone is aiming for Google’s calendar, which would put us at September. The agency has made it clear that they do not feel we are an online company, and that they want us to come back in person. However, they have also recognized that not everybody will want to come back for five days a week, so there will be more flexibility. Regarding working 100% remote permanently, If you want to have a chance to do that I would make sure you negotiate that right up front, and that you understand whether the account you are interviewing for will be OK with that. Otherwise, I don’t think it will happen.

Thanks for the response! That’s exactly the info I was looking for. I do think I’ll see what the expectations are during the interview/s, but even if they are okay with me working remotely at least until the fall, that would give me time to tie everything up here and find a place to live in/near Chicago.

If you go for interview and you sort of know that the person interviewing you might be curious about something on your negative on your resume like why is there a gap or why were you in XX role for so long?

Do you address it pre-emptively? Or does that show insecurity and you leave the elephant in the room and wait till they ask you?

I guess this is more in the case of networking than interview like do you make your own story?
