Omg this is my dream! How did you land the job!

I love London - if you’re going to rent I suggest keeping it as central as possible if you can afford it. Take in everything that London has to offer!

Congratulations on the role!

Hey thanks. I had to go through about 60 interviews to learn the right way to go about interviews.
Thanks for your advice. I agree it would be great to experience London.

All the best to you for what you're doing!

Congrats on the job offer! Here's a resource that should help narrow down your search: https://www.rentlondonflat.com/the-safest-and-most-dangerous-places-to-rent-in-london/

Thanks! This for sure is helpful. I thought Bromley was supposed to be risky but this says its one of the safest. Thanks :)

Probably best if you try to live near your office. London is a pretty nice place to live but be prepared to pay some hefty rents.

Hello, everyone!

I have an interview for a relatively new law firm early next week. However, upon doing more research about them, I noticed that their website has only a black-and-white website about only what the law firm is about.

My questions are:

Is this a red flag?
How do you guys prepare for interviews specifically with law firms that have little to some information on their website and Glassdoor?

Thank you so much in advance!

Why does the 3% Conference get so much money from agencies & clients when they have a history of showcasing toxic, abusive to female employees underneath them, women in advertising? Every year, people are shocked at who gets featured there. The idea is not just to celebrate women, it’s to celebrate aspirational women. Maybe they ran out of speakers and are dipping down too much. But agencies and clients should take a hard look at who is speaking before giving money.
