Did Zaria get screwed over by Duolingo or what? The tone on this is almost bridge burning.

Is it a red flag when a recruiter talks about unrealistic benefits like getting a chance to fly to another state just to visit the client HQ all expense-free? Or is it really a thing? Let me know if you have experience like this.

Have a really good relationship with current company, but got an amazing offer and very likely gonna leave (signed the offer, waiting for all the background checks to come back). How do you tell your boss you are leaving the company (if boss is not a dick lol) and not ruin relationship?

If this drags on until November how the heck are we gonna do an election? At least the campaigning seems to have been put on the backburner

The key is to keep the momentum going guys...we can’t give up so easily and let the suits win. $AMC to the moon tomorrow!!

Has a partner ever come back and asked you why you spent so much time on certain things? Im a first year and this hasn’t happened to me at my firm and they tell us not to cut our own time, but my first firm (short stint, small firm) did this to me allll the time and made me feel guilty — so just curious if this has happened to anyone in big law.

Hi fishes,

I joined Accenture this week and recived my laptop today, wanted to know what are the peripheral i should receive as my start up kit, i only received a laptop and nothing else like mouse or headphones. Is there anyone i can connect to get clarification?

Hello fishes,
I have been offered From Persistent system with 90% hike and some joining bonus.
I am still awaiting offer from Capgemini as I have cleared interviews and completed documentation there too.
My question is should wait for Capgemini's offer? As they haven't been responsive to any of my mode of communication.
While as Persistent has been responsive and offered a good deal..let me know ur thoughts

Single black female. Late 30s, no kids. Is it better to practice in a smaller market that’s close to major cities, lots of professional opportunities, but no real single professional scene? OR be in a bigger pond/major city with more professional and networking opportunities, oversaturated with lawyers of color, more competition for professional opportunities, but bigger dating pool?

How do I turn my recent popularity with recruiters into an actual offer?I have been involved with security since my phone phreak days.

Fishes,

Does anyone know about the IAAP diploma in IFRS?

IAAP is an awarding body in UK.

My doubt is, does the value of the certificate of IFRS change depending on the Institution?

Will a person who cleared IFRS from IAAP have same value as a person who cleared IFRS from ACCA?

Thanks in advance

Any idea about our yemlur office? When can we go ?

Curious how MBB's cybercapabilities are viewed within the cyber world. Experiences, thoughts?

Does anyone ever hide that you are lawyer, to escape the "free advice" questions?

How many hours will you bill this year? If you have ever been spoken to about needing to bring up your hours, how low were they?

When I go client side, I will demand that all decks sent to me MUST use Goudy Stout font at all times

Best (non-agency) company to work at in Boston??

Don’t ask me why but would anyone know where I could download McDonald’s font? Preferably for free... I think it’s called Speedee? I can’t find it anywhere... help

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

Hypothetically, what might happen, if Strat said to fishbowl they needed a virtual hug? Other than CD potentially saying something snarky and mean ...hypothetically only.

What was your most amazing day in advertising?

Best way to find a mentor? I'm trying to better my book to get better jobs but I need some guidance.

If you get an offer a few days before you have a final interview (or while you're waiting to hear back), is it okay to ask for some time? Or do they expect you to answer right there?

i'm in the final round for 2 different media positions in 2 completely different places (NYC and NC) and things are moving really quickly for both. the NYC job is my dream one but they're both offering $40k so i'm conflicted. any advice would be helpful lol

Hi friends, I am reading this book ‘radical cander’ and was wondering if you have Fav way/ example of receiving and giving tough feedback? Or have any stories about feedback that have stuck with you through your career.

What do you put in your timesheet after a day of staring at your computer? We all have days that are less than productive, right? Speaking as a creative, anyway.

Thanks to the robots, there’s just not a lot left to do.

So why do we still have to spend all our waking time playing office?

Hey. An observation. Every post and comment on here for the past month has been negative as fuck. Yes, life is rough right now. But advertising as a paying job is hilarious and we should all take a beat to remember that.
