ghosted from FIG :(

Looking to talk to someone about joining Capital One’s digital team in the senior associate product manager role for mobile products!

I have a linen blazer from theory that despite my diligent steaming looks wrinkled within 5 minutes of putting it on. Do I need to just accept that this is how linen looks? Or is my blazer defective 😭

I've worked as THE translator, linguist, proofreader, and interpeter for years. Im great as the face of the company and the detailed-oriented QA. I'm always working alongside project managers and I'm known for excelling and pick up skills fast. I'm organized, driven, and I manage my business, timelines, and client relationships. I want to become a Project Manager OFFICIALLY. I've been applying for two months now officially on job boards but no luck. Any tips on how advance to PM asap?

Hiya! I was wondering if anyone here has any good recommendations in terms of books or learning material that I can pick up to learn about sales and marketing relevant to the consulting industry?

Hi All,

I submitted my resume in Accenture portal 3 months back and now I got shortlisted for interview.

My yoe is 3.6, but the interview is scheduled role "Application lead project". Is this normal?

Are there any chances they might reject me as the interview is for lead role while my YOE fall in senior analyst / analyst role.

Thanks,

Question for the ladies out there: looking to get my wife a nice bag, she mentioned she wanted something large to hold her everyday things. I understand the LV tote looking back is a popular one, can y’all recommend anything else that’s similar? I see a ton of women out there with the typical LV tote bag but I don’t wanna get her something “basic.” Thanks

Torn on going all in on Marriott (more locations, often closer to offices and client sites) vs. Hyatt (better rewards program). Thoughts? What have you chosen?

Does anyone have a spouse with a mental illness? I struggle with severe depression myself, so I’m not unfamiliar with the pain and with how broken mental health care is in the US. My husband has bipolar type 2 and has become very suicidal. Last night he was thinking of ways to kill himself, and I convinced him to call the VA crisis line to talk to someone. They called EMS and committed him involuntarily because he is at risk of harming himself. Now he says that it’s all my fault...cont

Any NJBs out there?

Hi I'm looking for opportunities into HR domain have 4.5 years of experience in coordination and recruitment please do let me know if any opportunities comes up.

What was your career path that led you to a job in tech and one piece of advice you’d give to someone just starting out? 👩‍💻🏃‍♀️

How much do recruiters pay if you give them a referral that they end up placing? Thanks.

How is everyone searching for jobs right now? We’re having a lot of trouble finding the right talent and I feel our recruiters are just cold calling everyone on LinkedIn. Is there anywhere else you all typically search for jobs? Would you take a cold call from work recruiter at an independent agency you may not have heard of?

Also I’m keen to get a more diversified team-any suggestions on where to post openings?

Ladies do you wear pointed shoes to work?

I have taught Pk-2 (full time aides) & SpEd inclusion K-8 with parapros. This will be my first time alone in a classroom of 27 3rd graders. What is your favorite project to do in 3rd??

I have 3 offers from Capgemini, Wipro DO&P and Deutsche Bank.
For Capgemini and Wipro it will be permanently WFH
For Deutsche Bank it wil be 3 days in office (I have to move to Bangalore from Gurgaon).

Please suggest which one to join.
I have one more question what is Wipro DO&P how it is different from Wipro Technology. And which one is better.

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

Code and Theory

Lauren May and Nicole Wright - Ogilvy

Rita Armstrong. Talked big game about getting me in front of a bunch of shops and then never responded to any follow ups.

Vaynermedia, every 2 years.

Edelman. Fourth time now — each time, they reach out to me! Honestly, I’m not looking for a job just trying to be polite and keep my network open but fool me once; fourth time and you’ve been blocked.

Patty Ganaden VMLYR semi-👻...awhile back reaches out, asks me to fill out an info sheet to “get in the freelance system” & hasnt once written me back the very few times I’ve emailed her over 9 mos

“Hi there are you available and can you come work in (city)?”

Got this from a “name” shop around 2:30pm PST. Responded promptly, yes to both. No response yet. Ghosting Countdown is on, folks! 🤞🏽⏰👻

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.

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.

At what point do you consider yourself officially ghosted? No response to 2 emails? A week since the promised follow up?

Razorfish. Although every once in a while they’ll reach out to me for irrelevant positions.

Essence NY anyone?

Carmichael Lynch. It’s a goddamned ghost town. I’m starting to think they don’t have email there.

TFW a recruiter tells you that the agency is pausing its interviewing process because they’re waiting on project renewals & that this will take a couple weeks. Fast forward three/four days, the same exact job listing is reposted. Just say I was rejected, Nina!!

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...

The recruiter for freelance at Havas is the worst. She’ll email and ask for my availability then ghost. Also brought me in for an interview & didn’t even tell them I freelanced there before.

MDC - Annie Warren

Sadly a lot of recruiters are unemployed and being ghosted themselves.

Hopefully this pandemic will open the eyes of some on the practice of ghosting...
