@EY3 you're right about negotiating power! Didn't think of that. @EY4 not with pwc anymore, so I guess I'm a bit more desperate 😕

Should I reach out to the 2nd interviewer and ask if an update or does that seem too desperate?

I would sit right for a few more days. Some people are still on vacation. Give it till next week

Tight*

@EY1 - would you suggest reaching out to the recruiter or interviewer early next week?

I'm torn between the two, especially since the recruiter has been non responsive

I would. It reach not out to the interviewer...the recruitor has more at stake here in terms of commissions...if he has an update, he will chase you...

Would suggest not reaching out to either. You've made it known that you're interested and if you reach out again, you're losing any potential negotiating power. Apply to lots more places in the mean time and hopefully something will work out soon!

Not much you can do. If you are still at PwC I guess keep working. If you're not then apply elsewhere. But nothing else can be done other than emailing. I would email her today itself saying you are waiting for an update and would like to know where you stand. HR is that way, if they don't want to respond they just done. Email your interviewer and HR and see what hits

Yeah so I suggest all you can do is email both HR and interviewer a brief but to the point email asking for status. Is the firm your applying to a consulting firm?

Nope, tech firm

How often do you think you will be traveling in 2022 with COVID mostly behind us? In the final interview/negotiation stages with an agency focused on pharmaceutical marketing as an Account Manager. Offer states up to 30% travel (but was told 20% is more realistic). No further info given such as location of accounts I'd be working on or a baseline other AMs travel. Feels like a red flag. Not interested in much travel. Quarterly is manageable. Any insights from others in similar roles??

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you
