I work as a marketing consultant and I love my job. It’s the career for me and I want to advance my career and climb the ladder.

What are some things that I can do now to prepare me for that next role?

I have over 12 years in B2B sales/sales management experience along with a graduate degree. I am wanting to shift gears and I am at a point where I can invest time in myself to learn through practical experience. The new industry I am wanting to pursue is real estate investment. I have read all the books but want some hands on experience on the property management side. How could I best leverage my skills for a role in this, and what should my expectations be for negotiation in compensation?

Has anyone jumped from firm directly to a business role at a company or know anyone that has? If so, how did you/they do it? Any tips or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, I’d love to hear from PR/Comms folks about the process of transitioning from agency to an in-house role. What kind of chance does a PR pro with ~7 years of solid experience across CPG and hospitality brands, including a mix of global agency work and smaller boutique firms, have at going in house? Do you typically need more experience before going in house? Would be great to hear about various experiences from those that have made the transition. Thanks!

Any SAP EWM fish in here? I am new to SAP and just finishing my first project in EWM. Would like to continue building Expertise in this Module.
I am therefore looking for advice on how to go about this?
Which areas within EWM to focus on or start with to build a good foundation.
I have not had formal training so just learning on the HUB and by doing as I go.
But I feel like I need to focus on one area. I cannot decide how/ what though.
Happy Holidays!
Thank you.

Has anyone left healthcare and is now really happy? I’m an MSN, RN with 12 years hospital experience. I’m burned out and tired of making crap pay. I have an opportunity outside of healthcare that would pay more and challenge me in new ways that I haven’t experienced before. It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for. I would appreciate any input!!!!

What book have you read that was helpful for your career and/or that you would recommend? Could be a technical book, management, etc. For me, it’s a book I read a few years ago: The Phoenix Project. I never thought I would read and like a novel about DevOps but I recommend it to all my managers.

How soon after starting a new job is it OK to take a vacation? Is it seen as bad etiquette to start a job and, a week in, book a vacation a month in advance? I’d be taking three to five days off.

Hi fishies! Over the past 2.5 weeks I’ve had two interviews with an agency. I thought both interviews went really well, and they said the same. After the first I heard back quickly to schedule the second. Now after the second it’s been a little over week with no follow up on next interview. Is it too early to send a follow-up? Would you follow-up at all?

Is it bad that I want to aim to work 9-5s? Is it bad that I feel guilty for wanting to work 8 hour days? I want to just have time end of day, spend some evening with family and have my time. Basically to live life? Enjoy the journey? I love my job and work. There also stuff more important than ads?

Does anyone know if Vice Media and internal agency Virtue consider remote candidates?

Do you think independent agencies will be in better shape to handle COVID-related client budget reductions and/or losses?

Or does it not matter and layoffs are equal across the board?

Anyone else feel like as you move up, you have to work even harder to justify your value to your company as you grow “out of the weeds”? Especially with the fear of layoffs looming over everyone’s heads.

Quiet firings are happening through out the industry right now. Agencies have become better about hiding the layoffs and firings. Not a good thing…

Thoughts on BGB Group (NY)?

Do other agencies have a “no hiring people from Vayner” policy or is my inability to land a new job just because I suck?

Came up with an idea in an agency brainstorm, even who the influencer should be. Now it’s being executed, but I’m not working on it. Weird if I put it in my book? Maybe as just the one who came up with it?

I spent the morning telling several of my creatives about the raises and promotions they got this week. Best day of my career.

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?

I want to test a theory: I feel like the Internet has turned brands into selfies. Their content isn’t about who they are, but about who they think they are. Basically just validation for themselves.
