Has anyone gotten a designer job at an agency when they weren’t hiring, but with networking they managed to get it?

I've been interviewing with another company for about a month. The whole process has been 3 interviews over a months time. I have been in my current role over 6+ years (as HR mgr) and it's very transactional and not very strategic. The new company wants someone to lead a team from a senior level (HR Director) - what advice do you have for taking the next step in my career? I'm likely going to take the offer if it comes.

I've seen a couple posts about unionizing, anyone know anything about the potential Kaiser strike in early October? Saw online that they're already hiring for scabs, $3400-$5950 + housing, travel transportation, and per diem. And this is for techs!!!

Hi! I am coming from Deloitte as an experienced HC consultant (6 years in higher Ed industry, 2 years at Deloitte) and applying for an internal career services role at BCG (US). Can someone please refer me? Thank you

First year (ug level hire) and got email from apple recruiter. Would love to exit to FAANG but not sure I'm ready to leave BCG in my first year but maybe after 2-4. What is best practice?

How is job security, annual hike and onsite opportunity in Publicis Sapient?

Role: Product Manager

Please let me know your views.

Received a verbal offer/commitment from the engineering team 3 weeks after my interview process. Still sitting and waiting (1.5 weeks) to have the conversation about compensation expectations and finalizing the offer. Is the Google hiring process typically this slow? I feel like this is not a good reflection of their recruiting process. Let me know if you've had recent/similar experiences

Good day,

I will appreciate a referral for a VP role in Mastercard South Africa.

Why the resource team is wrongly mapping to higher level management role project proposals. Like 4 yr experienced people are being proposed for 10 year experience requirement.
Does anyone else faced this? LTI

I’ve been at BCG in the west coast for 3 years out of undergrad. I am looking to join a Series B/C start-up in some strategy/operations role. Any rough estimates for what I can expect for comp (knowing it’s variable)? TYIA

Any antitrust experts want to opine on the FB news? I’m certainly no expert, haven’t read the actual complaint, and am all for competition laws, but it does strike me as odd that the FTC is coming in long after the fact to scrutinize certain acquisitions.

Hello Team, who are from Risk Advisory function, want to connect with all of you, we are on same domain.@USI KOLKATA @RiskAdvisory

Hello, I am in USI GES tax at DUSI. I love my job but not my team and mgmt anymore. I'm a performer and I'm dumped with work of 2 ppl while others are searching for work. I am burned out.

I resigned and accepted a job with EY GDS with a huge pay bump that DUSI can't match but I also gave up my potential promotion for 2023.

I've been feeling bad about putting my papers down and letting go off my promotion but I am really tired. I took up this job as an escape.

Did i do the right thing?

Accidentally found the song ‚Life‘ by Zivert on Spotify. Perfect to lighten up a Sunday morning. Anything else you find worth sharing music wise? Have a great one!

Does anyone follow the 3-fund portfolio? If so, could you share your 3?

For couples who are not married yet - Do you guys talk about net worth, income, or anything even finance related? I know my SO earns more given his current industry, but thinks it’s rude to talk about those things. But I’m wondering… isn’t it normal for couples who live together or are married share those info? For example - How am I going to know what to pay for our child’s education in the future etc?

Mortgage rates already crossed 5% but the home prices not showing any signs of cooling down!! Any historical indicators where we may be headed 🤔

Every home is NY and west coast is a million plus. It’s like any decent home is million plus now. Yet I find it strange that only 12 percent of US population is millionaire status. Why?

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Hi friends — anyone using Deltek for PM software? My org is pretty deep in onboarding into it but I’m feeling unsure. Would love some takes — hot or otherwise 💅✨ also TGIFFFFFF

How long is normal to wait to hear back from a final round ?

Has anyone worked on the creative team for Hilton corporate? As someone who loves travel (and Hilton hotels) this always appealed to me. Wondering if anyone can shed some light on the reality of working there.

What big moves/life changes are you guys making in 2020?

What agencies are doing the funniest work and what is it? Daddy gotta know

Any tips for securing freelance work with US agencies when you live abroad? My work is pretty solitary and I could fly in for workshops or a major presentation.

Do any of u have book recos that give you the low down for digital/social (inclusive of what reporting means ect)? Just joined a team and would like to be proactive since everyone is super busy for

Anyone else always snacking at their desk? I have to have chocolate everyday or I get a headache, but I think it's making me fat. Especially since I binge on it. >=/

It’s so nice that every agency laying off people, have those left standing (and other agencies) trying to hustle jobs for their unemployed friends, but there are also a ton of people who were unemployed prior to Covid...so no severance, job hunting lot longer, and not earning income for longer time...hurting even MORE due to quarantine.

Are there any NYC ad agencies that have flexible remote WFH policies or is everyone required to be in the office a few days a week?

Anyone else feel like avoiding all these spots before the super bowl is an extreme sport? Maybe it’s just me, but I want to see them at game time... reading ahead takes all the fun out of it for me.

How big does an agency have to be to justify a CCO title?

I laugh during awkward situations. The other day someone called me out on laughing. It was awkward.

Just got turned down for a job I really wanted. No interview. I even had a referral, but they didn't even look at my book! Feeling empty and worthless right now. I know I have inherent value as a human being but I am so desperate to succeed and can't seem to catch a break. Just wanted to vent. Thank you for reading.

Here’s to the introverts finally getting a chance to have a little control over how and when interactions happen with others.

Who’s negotiated severance? Any tips?

In a typical advertising creative team structure, who vets the new hires? ECD? CD? Trying to get some clarity as I work at a small shop with CD being the highest title.

Honest question, can fishbowl actually help resolve and navigate the challenges, frustrations and realizations we face as an industry? Or more just a place to vent?

Apparently every agency sucks according to every "What do you think of Agency X" thread on here. I don't even know why people ask anymore. 😜

If my work starts with the strategy, and I successfully demonstrate how the creative ties to the strategy, and we all agree the connection is clear, then how is the work still deemed "off-strategy"?
