Hello! Current college student looking to go abroad for school while interning. Any advice on great markets for advertising? I know London has a solid ad scene, but I’d love to hear of other places!

Career opportunities like that are awesome BUT just don’t over commit yourself. Yes an internship abroad could be cool. But if you’re going abroad regardless of the internship opportunity, consider not doing an internship and instead really immersing yourself in the culture of your host country and traveling. You’ll get way more “experience” and perspective you can bring to your future jobs and career that way outside of trade skills.

Wish I was in your shoes. If I were you, I'd look at The One Show agency rankings. You'll see agencies from Auckland, Amsterdam, New Dehli, Melbourn, Tokyo, etc.

And you'll see what agency they came from. Find the mutherfuckin CD and write him a letter.

Breakup etiquette- we broke up and I was supposed to go to his relatives’s wedding in a couple of weeks. I know the couple, not super well, but have hung out and texted individually as well. Should I let them know I won’t be attending and wish them well or don’t reach out to them?

Well, I was the one who broke it off. I couldn’t get him to love me the way I needed or even respect me enough. It’s been 6 weeks of not seeing each other. We messaged this week. He doesn’t get it…. His messages show he still doesn’t know what he wants. Yet, if I am totally honest, I hate how part of me wishes he would do a grand gesture/finally decide to be a better man. It’s delusional. It’s crazy how love can be so rosy, sweet & blinding that the red flags seem surmountable.

Hi fishes, after completing 3 months probation, after how many days we get the confirmation ? Even we get the confirmation or not ?

Hey folks, need some help. I cleared all my interview rounds and had completed the documentation too. However for more than two weeks the status on the portal is "offer initiated". The HR says the delay is happening because the people who need to approve are on leave. Are they playing around or keeping on hold? Do they actually release offer after this much delay? Please share if you know anything about it.
