Hard to submit to awards as a person (vs agency). Your best bet may be to do some really cool work (freelance, spec, or actual art) and circulated around the industry

You can also become a SME in LinkedIn and network in your city

Join an org or look for awards in AAF (suits), etc. Those you can nominate yourself, but it's best to have 2-3 folks nominate you as well. I'd also get working kn your LI recommendations from current and former colleagues. I added that to my resume for a huge pay bump role a few years back. Worked brilliantly

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
