How about a thread on what Corp Comms pros make in India? It'll be nice to know our compensation journey through the years. I have started with 4 LPA as a campus recruit for internal Comms analyst role at one of the big 4s? In 6 years, my CTC has grown 4x.

What sort of questions are asked in an interview for Senior Analyst(Data science role) I have an econ background. And experience in analytics not in data science.

Wow you don’t even need to type “Google”.

Has anyone been through Google’s recruitment process ? How bad do you feel about not being valued ?🙂

Why do leaders keep comparing how “good”the new staff/seniors have it because they make more money starting out then they did and working 55 hours is better than the 70-80 hours they used to work? Instead they should compare what options they have available to them and what their goals are.

For writing samples in clerkship applications, can you edit/revise a final work product already submitted to the court? For instance, if there's a typo or something. Can more substantive edits be made to improve the work product?

Need advice on a specific question!
Interviewed with Chicago court 2 weeks ago; they decide mid-August. Interviewed with DC judge last week; hear from him by this Friday. Chicago said if I need an answer before August, they'd try to make a decision about me sooner.
Should I ask Chicago for an answer? Or should I wait until there's an offer from DC judge? Maybe seems better to withdraw before an offer is made rather than ask for time to think about it/turn down DC? What's proper etiquette?

Anyone deal with taking paternity leave during a 2-year clerkship? How long did you take and how’d you bring it up to your judge?

To those who applied for and obtained an appellate clerkship *after* clerking at a district court: How many applications did you submit to get your appellate clerkship? Did you have your district court judge advocate on your behalf, and if so, how much of a difference do you feel it made?

ACCA and CPA qualifications. How useful are they in the line of consulting. I work in the M&A space focusing on FDD. Happy to have a chat to see what qualifications if any are actually useful in our line of work.

Hi Are there any google cloud TAMs who can chime in on salary range? Thanks!

As a liberal arts student, I’ve been piecing together how to create a killer portfolio but am at a point where I need some personal feedback. Would anyone be willing to look my portfolio over and provide advice on how to improve it? Thank you!

Anyone have experience setting up more in-depth analytics for portfolio websites? Any ways to get more information about who is looking at my book? I'm on squarespace. Cheers!

Can you put spec work in your book?

How often is everyone updating their portfolio? Should I be updating mine every few months or would be okay to go longer?

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”

So I know this will sound crazy ... but I've never really had to have a portfolio, in the conventional sense, but a current offer is asking for one. What's the best way to build one out? Thanks!

Trying to refresh my portfolio and thinking about switching to a different platform, what are my fellow copywriters’ fave sites to use?? I’m currently using wix since it’s free, but it’s given me many headaches trying to get it how I want my portfolio to look. I’m also looking into Copyfolio as well.

Anyone have some portfolio advice for me? Trying to figure out how to frame side projects…

Too chicken to post my book here- anyone know of good outlets to use for book reviews?

What do you think is the best site to make your book on as a copywriter?
