Damn. Was lucky enough to land an interview. The interview went numerous rounds, it was super positive, so then I decided I would be 100% honest about something I wasn’t good at, in hopes of being clear that I was ready to grow. Then I got ghosted, and I think it’s because of the said honesty. Feeling low and stupid for ever admitting a “fault” in an interview instead of just telling them that I’m perfect.

Jr. Associate at an AmLaw 100 firm in Central Florida. Good credentials; top 10% at T14, law review. Sick of private practice bc of hours and pressure. Also, not enjoying the work that Central Florida offers, but want to live here.

I want to one day have my own firm. Trying to think outside the box on how to get the experience w/o being in big law for ten years.

Thinking of applying to be an ASA and to the FL AGO. Would like trial experience or civil rights/con law work.

Thoughts appreciated!

I am looking at other government jobs.
1. When I fill out my job experience, do I need to include the last ten years or every job I’ve had? I don’t have anything to hide, but I especially in my late teen years I was a job hopper.
2. I have worked seasonally in retail to make ends meet. Do I need to put this on my work experience when applying?

Can anyone explain the Chubb underwriting associate training? Is it in person or hybrid? Interview process? Looking to make a transition from education.

Anyone know any recruiters at USAA? Trying to apply for jobs there but getting no luck

I have been job searching (currently unemployed) for 5 months now and am emotionally drained from doing on average 6-8 interviews a week now. Made it to the final rounds to a couple but ended up getting ghosted after or was not offered the job. Advice on how to stay positive? I’m not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel atm

Folks who managed to switch jobs in this economy, how did you get the job? Did a recruiter reach out to you ? Or did you go on sending out applications?

Should all the on-site interviews have a feedback of "hire/ strong hire" in order to proceed to HC?
What if one of rounds was not up to the mark?

Hello fishes,
Anybody part of the Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB) Benchmarking Hub within the Panorama Financial Institutions Center (PFIC) at McK?
Would love to have an insights or steps to prepare for the interview scheduled for the role of the Sr. Analyst in the same team.

Very early in my career (1 year experience). But any tips on how would one prepare for job interviews while working a hectic full time schedule?

Is there anyone who works currently or has worked for Travelers Insurance in Hartford CT? Looking for an idea on compensation, benefits and your opinion on the company. I’m interviewing for the Operations Manager role

Hiring managers: What do you read on a resume?

Do you only look for the portfolio URL?

Is a bulleted list helpful if you’ve never heard of the agencies?

Do you truly care about software skills?

Have an interview with Elliot management, anyone down to talk about what you know about the firm/ experiences?

I recommended a candidate for hire to a manager that reports directly to me. This person is a perfect match, but wanted the manager to obviously recommend. It has to be a fit. The manager just told me my recommendation is not her top pick. I feel frustrated because as much as we talk about the position, I wonder if we are mot aligned on criteria. What do I do? Do I push more for the person I want or will I cause an issue with the hiring manager? How do I get her to see this person’s value?

What’s the best way to blindly reach out for a job? My dream agency is one of those ones that never seems to actually post job ops. No real connections yet, either.

Hi there!!

🥰🥰
I just want to say that I'm queer and married, in a Cis-hetero passing relationship 🤭

Do we have to talk about dating like all the time?

Can't we talk about other stuff? Like promoting THE AGENDA (jk)

No, but FR let's talk about being open and accepted in the workplace? How did you do that? How (un) friendly is the work environment?

Thankyaaaaaaaalll 😘😘😘

I love that my 401k gets $200 in dividends every quarter

Do you guys touch type? How long did it take you to learn? lol

To the multiple OPs that brought up TSCRF... thank you!! +25% in the last few days

I’ve been going through it this month. Was on Buspirone for 4 weeks which caused a n of depression. Now I just started Zoloft and I’m feeling extra anxious and hypersensitive. One of my colleagues made fun of an idea I suggested and I’m taking it way more seriously than I should. How did your journey go to get on meds and adjust to them? I hate feeling so up and down.

Waiting for CPA scores on 9/19 is more stressful than busy season 😩😩😩

Do biglaw firms acquire your official law school transcript grades in a background check? Or do they merely confirm attendance?

Rising 2L here…Just found out yesterday that one of my top target law firms is not participating in OCIs (they don’t have offices in my state). Any advice on the best way to move forward with them? Still planning to apply, just want to know what I should be doing. Thanks!

What company have you worked for that has the least amount of office politics?

Hey everyone. New here.

Which is the more lucrative and flexible long term career path when comparing .NET development vs salesforce development.

By flexible I mean in terms of moving between positions, companies and technologies.

I've done both and am currently doing salesforce development but don't want to get pigeonholed.

I know agencies across the board did some layoffs right before the holidays, but when do we think hiring will pick up again? Getting to a point where I feel like I need to start thinking about a change.

I moved out of Chicago and this is my first year missing CIMA. Pretty sad about it :(

If the open office concept is so great for collaboration why does everyone wear gigantic noise cancelling headphones to try to ignore everyone around them?

Curious how other people’s brains work.
When you get an activation brief, what’s your process for coming up with a solid idea?

Look for cultural moments that you can adapt? Look through award show books? Scroll YouTube videos until 3am?

I know that every brief and every idea is different, but I’m more interested in the process and what you’re creative routine is to get the wheels turning.

Thanks.

CFOs shall be regretting any budgets approval for Cannes right now.

Where you fish getting ad industry news? I can’t bring myself to pay for publications like AdAge, Campaign or AdWeek, but I want to know which accounts and teams are moving around.

I don’t understand summer hours. If you have to make up the hours you take off for summer hours earlier in the week, aren’t you working just as hard in a more condensed amount of time?

Your opinion on VaynerMedia?

Without asking or confirming, account lead booked an in-person client meeting that requires travel. Who books ~any~ major client meeting without first checking with the team ?

Anyone else always snacking at their desk? I have to have chocolate everyday or I get a headache, but I think it's making me fat. Especially since I binge on it. >=/

What's Your Take?:

Asking creatives to work on a project with lots of award potential but minimal budget/billable time allocations. So the majority of the work would be done on personal time.

Pretty excited to get back to the hustle on Tuesday... this break was really nice and much needed but I'm feeling a little antsy to get moving again. I can't be the only one ?

How'd you guys build sponsors and advocates within the firm? I am struggling with this.

My new agency’s healthcare plan only has ONE physician in NYC listed as in-network... is a plan this limited the norm?!

I am a strategist and have been told InTouch is a “strategy-driven” organization (which is unusual but would be amazing). But another poster just said it’s account driven (which is typical). What’s your experience and how do you know?

which agencies in the city are creative driven rather than account driven

So I'm in a weird space at the moment. I've been interviewing with a lot of agencies in the past couple of months, and I keep getting the same response of "I need more agency experience." How am I supposed to get that experience if one of the things holding me back is not having enough agency experience?
