Gave way too much of my time to Huge. Sad, as I love them.

I'm going from working at a non IT industry to an IT firm. As an introvert I've faced a lot of difficulty in my career... Now since I'm also shifting to another industry completely, I'm feeling very insecure about my life at work. Please give me tips on how to make friends and be in the good books of the managers.

About to be a new dad. Starting to look into childcare but feeling a little overwhelmed. Would love to hear thoughts/opinions on what to look for besides convenience.

Failed REG by 2 points... I feel defeated and honestly don’t know if I can do this anymore

Making the move from Chicago to Brooklyn. I'm looking for Sr. Art Director roles but open to other positions outside of traditional advertising as well. Being able to incorporate photography would be a bonus.

Need sincere advise on this
I recently resigned from Infosys (still on probation) - while discussing with my manager and lead both of them told me that - they cannot give me hike as the current in hand offer - however chances of on-site is possible… but I need to complete at least 1 year in Infosys.. Current offer in hand is from a Captive & they have fixed ctc - what to do?

I pity those who revel in the "accomplishment" of have 100+ YTD utilization. Y'all got suckered by the firm.

CIPS VS CSCP VS CPM

Are BAs comparatively safer than Dev’s when it comes to layoffs?

Anyone recently hired at Big 4 - are there still signing bonuses and referral bonuses? If so, what firm and how much?

Hi Fishes,
Need your advice. Got HR call for salary discussion they are ready to offer 8.25 lpa + 1L joining bonus .
Is it good offer or should I reject for 2.5 years of experience?

Sharks promoted from level 11 to level 10 ?

How do we still feel about GHIV and BFT

How can I lower my taxes? I feel like I pay a LOT (30%+) but don’t get many benefits in return.

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)

Is 49,000 a fair starting salary for a scientist 1 with a B.S in biology in Philadelphia?

Professional assessment tests...

Can anyone recommend online professional assessment tests for profiling personality / aptitudes, rather than for skills?

Or can you share which assessments you've seen private equity firms using most often?

Thaaanks.

Has the official notice period in EY GDS been revised to 2 months from 3 months? Seems those who are currently in NP are getting this message .. please confirm.

Hello! Any single men would like to chat? If you’re engaging, not a weirdo, and can a hold convo, you can slide into my dm’s. 30/f/nyc 😋

McCann was the worst. Ogilvy and RG/A

Anyone else get ghosted by more than one recruiter at the same agency? Thought I would have better luck when the first recruiter who was notorious for ghosting left but the new one ghosted me too...

Flew from London to the US for a two day interview marathon. Had one call with HR two weeks later where I was told they were gathering feedback and would get back to me asap. Never heard back. (contd)

D&G - Nicole Gordon
Flaked on 2 calls she set up, blamed time difference since EST & PST are so hard to distinguish then silence, but weeks later reaches out via LinkedIn about the same opportunity

MDC - Annie Warren

Gmails “nudge” feature does a real good job in reminding who’s ghosting me at the moment.

Email response from a resume submission requesting times to chat and that she's " really looking forward to speaking with me." Three email replies later - crickets. I'm so tired of this shit...

Lauren May and Nicole Wright - Ogilvy

Joseph Golden omnicom

R/GA - they are the worst. Some of the people they have hired over the years makes me wonder if their HR department is smoking crack

Ghosting after on-site interviews is despicable. Recruiting has been a part of my job for years in addition to resourcing & project management, and I would always manage to reply emails.

Greetings, Ghosted! bowl members. As 2019 concludes, people who posted here: please let us know if you ever heard back from your ghosters.

Tfw a recruiter reaches out and asks if you’re around for a chat... Only to never respond to you again after you say yes. Just, why?!

An in-house recruiter from Publicis reached out two months ago asking for my avails to chat. I responded within a few hours and it’s been crickets...

Lucky Generals. I was ghosted after an in person coffee interview and promises of setting up a meeting with the other founders. Just found out another pal of mine had the same experience with them!

Had what had to be the best call with a recruiter I’ve ever had — she seemed so excited to pass my work to her teams, received the sweetest follow up email from her, but now it seems like she’s ghosting me. UGHHHHH. Any words of wisdom or advice? Feeling bummed because I was super excited about this opportunity.

I’m ghosting a recruiter and it feels great!
