Hi everyone! 👋

I work with Social Media and I’m based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and I’m looking to connect with people in the marketing, advertising, and creative industries. I’m always excited to learn from others in the field.

Halifax has such a great creative community, and I’m hoping to meet more like-minded people who are building cool things.

Feel free to reach out or drop a comment — always happy to network and learn! 🚀

How are Deloitte analysts not paid bonuses?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
