id say once you have a return offer just try your best. worst case pivot after a year. try for lofty goals but keep your sanity in check and enjoy college!

Get some experience under your belt at the smaller firm first. It'll make the jump much easier.

If you can't find a referral here, I would try over on Linked in. I usually have good luck over there! Best of luck to you.

Hello fishes 🐠🐋🐟,

Please help me out here.... Your input will be really great.

I have herd that currently most of the companies are in hiring freeze. (Holiday season, recession or layoffs).

I am trying to apply job for many companies since last month, and i haven't got any response from any of them.

Are there any Organizations still out there who are hiring/open for referral and are in position to handle recession.

Please comment your thoughts. It might make someone's day.

Thanks.

Hi Fishes.
I’m an L4 IC. I just got promoted to L4 in an off cycle promotion. It’s been only a month and since it’s a CS based role we work in Night Shifts. I feel monotonous within a month as it is a Virtual role.
I started to look for roles in JobFinder. The HMs are okay to consider, but the thing is “How do I say it my Current Manager??”
Can anyone give a subtle idea, such that my Current manager agrees even though its a month only?

Question for the Biglaw Bowl: How common is it to take a pay cut when being promoted from associate to income partner? I had heard about this happening at some lower ranked V100 firms. But now that I’m more senior and my friends are making partner, it sounds like it’s a lot more common than I thought and happens at firms where I wouldn’t expect it. Does anyone here have any insight into this? How common is it, how much of a pay cut, and how long until your pay catches up to associate pay?

I just listened to an interview of a creative director recount their path towards copywriting at a famous ad agency. It could not have been a more textbook case of failing upwards as a white man.

It would seem the only thing you need to make it as an advertising creative is to have lots of not particularly original ideas. Practically every other skill is unnecessary. If you’re a white man.

That this level of mediocrity passes for talent explains why so many agency briefs are so lame.
