I’ve denied W+K twice and they’ve asked me to work there two more times after that. Trust your gut.

Truth is, your career is long if it’s a mistake you have time to course correct, if it’s right you dodge a bullet.

I’ve dismissed myself from a final interview 5 minutes in and have been re-approached for another job within the same company. It’s always possible if you and your skills are desirable enough.

I declined an offer right out of ad school and ended up moving to that place a year later. Worked there for 2 years and a half before eventually moving on and I might go there for another round in a few years.

Any tips on how to deal with this…my entire team was let go today (was 5, now just me).

Would love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.
