I am a high ranking official in the deep state, ask me anything.

Hello, folks! I wonder if you have any advice/info for a person who is looking for an "investment associate" role in Dubai. I have a financial audit background (4 years Big-4), 1,5 year in deal advisory (half year financial due diligence department, 1 year valuation department). I have experience in TMT, retail, Energy and Utility and other industries. Currently I'm living in Eastern Europe.
What is considered to be normal in relation to WBL, compensations in Dubai for such role or similar?

Any insight into Seattle or Spokane firm billable hour requirements? What compensation are you seeing for associates with 2-3 years of experience?

I applied for two positions at a district court that say ‘open until filled’. I’m going on a cruise in a few weeks and don’t want to miss hearing from HR.
The posting says due to the high number of applicants do not follow up, you will be contacted if chosen for an interview.
How much will it hurt me to email and explain that I will be unavailable from 9/5 to 9/16 but I am extremely interested and don’t want to miss hearing from them if I have a chance for the position?

How many phone interviews did you have before the loop?

Do you think culinary school is worth it? I've been a waiter for a year but really want to be a chef. The people I work with say to just start in the kitchen and work my way up but I think culinary school might get me where I want to be faster. The cost is pretty insane though. Any advice?

Hi I am a new teacher intern hired yesterday. I will be teaching second grade. School reopens on Aug 17. I do not have my own materials. I do not know what materials are there in my classroom. What should I buy? I will be talking to the Principal on Monday to find out more. I am very excited and nervous at the same time. Any tips and suggestions for me would be helpful.

The espn ads are terrible. Horrible. Their in-house sucks and the worst part they don’t know how much they suck.

How do you know you’re an asset to an agency? I’ve read about people getting laid off on the spot, no prior notice nothing.

Is this normal in advertising?

Who is doing these Tecate ads?

I got laid off today and I’m scared

BBDO 🐠 - feeling for you guys today. How many in the layoffs?

Any diplomatic tips to get interns/juniors to work faster?

Without having ever experienced the hectic nature of being in the office, ours seem to be working at a snail’s pace (3 billable hours to copy 4 blogs over to a different platform? With no SEO or image research? Dream on... 🐌) and considering it to be working under pressure. I’m not expecting the world from them and understand it’s a learning experience... but also want them to be working faster to be able to take more on. Unreasonable?

What have you seen people fired for at your agency/ies? (This is meant to give some lessons for others on here)

I accidentally went on it again and wondered why it exists still and who is their new audience.

PSA: do not work at TAXI NY or anywhere near Reid Miller.
