For those of you who jumped and went brand side, did you pay to have your resume ATS optimized? If so, what did you pay? I'm being courted by a major brand, but being told that my ad agency resume needs to be ATS optimized to move forward.

Never mind. This was a scam from the beginning.

Got an email that I was perfect for this job as a senior producer based off of my LI profile. Emailed for my resume. Sent my resume. Sender seemed legit as I saw her profile on LI. Then she says my resume performed poorly with ATS. Suggested I contact an ATS resume writer. Did that. Then came the pricing. I just wanted to see how far this would go. As for this person’s LI profile, it was later shown to be BS.

I did run my resume through Chat and Claude. Fixed it myself.

Hey everyone! I’m struggling to decide whether I should pursue a full time MBA or a Part Time MBA. Truly, what scares me about a full time one is the fact that I won’t work for two years. I know it’s a big investment and I’ll be rewarded for ir later on, but the thought of it still scares me. I would love to get someone’s thoughts on this! Is the experience very different? Will I be exhausted if I do the part time? Is there something I’m not considering when it comes to the Full Time?

If you were offered a job at a great agency but working on just one brand, but it was a big one like Nike or McDonalds, would you do it? Being siloed sucks, but maybe worth it for a big account?

I am mainly working with shops in the States as a non-native speaker and I am constantly worried about my ability to communicate (in any professional occasion but mostly in meetings).

How do you feel as a native speaker when you meet non-natives? Should they be worried, or, they doing ok?
