Honestly, I think it was more about personality at some point towards the end. My early rounds proved I had the work and qualifications. So they wanted to make sure I matched the work environment and ethos.

Help,I started a new career n the events industry and I think I have to quit!

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
