Hiring managers: have you ever had 2 or more candidates that you absolutely loved and couldn’t decide who to hire? What was the deciding factor and how long did it take? Going through this now and need advice! (Both candidates had great interviews, sent thank you notes, and they have balanced pros/cons.) I want to work with both of them!

Is the CPA designation worth it? For me it would take me 1 year of PREP courses and 2 years of PEP until i can write the CFE. And I am 27 years old right now. Also wondering if it would be crazy to pursue the CPA while learning how to code to be a developer as well?

Solid tips or strategies on cutting back on alcohol? My bf & I were moderate drinkers before the pandemic, but over the year I’m fairly confident we’ve become heavy drinkers (6-7days/wk). I’m stressed about it and have mentioned cutting back for a while, but he insists we’re fine. I find it rly difficult to go cold turkey or cut by myself when he’s still drinking as “normal” and we share our living space. We’re aware of all the health risks, but that alone hasn’t changed us. All advice welcome!

Hi fishes,
I had interviewed for Cognizant and I was asked to submit my documents for offer letter release. This happened on the same day as my interview(Friday 6th May). I submitted my documents and I am trying to contact the HR who scheduled my interview, but she is not picking up my call. My question is how soon can I expect the offer letter to be released? And is there a possibility that they can reject my profile at this stage?

Anybody have success requesting to go from 100% on one account to 50/50 or at least floating around a bit more? Any tips welcome 🙏

Has anyone received a job offer after being initially ghosted by recruiter? How long did you not hear from them? Feeling down after not hearing anything for 2 weeks after a round of seemingly promising interviews.

The agency I work at has been struggling for more than 1.5 years. A mass exodus ensued naturally. Do I stay or go too? I'm not that unhappy and things have to get better?

Thoughts on companies pulling media dollars from NFL?

So why do company merges result in mass layoffs?

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

What do CDs look for on a resume? What would you expect to see on an art directors resume? Do things change if applying to agencies versus in-house?

Two months ago applied for a "dream role" at a "dream company" (not an agency). I am qualified for the role & they are looking for ppl with agency experience. a few days after applying a recruiter

Didn’t know who the CCO is when I was asked about it in an interview... is there anything I can do to redeem myself? I feel like I really dropped the ball on this lol

So Q1 has been abnormally weak for agencies across the board, right? Is it fair to say Trump is finally starting to effect the economy?

Hypothetically, what might happen, if Strat said to fishbowl they needed a virtual hug? Other than CD potentially saying something snarky and mean ...hypothetically only.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.

How many of you have met your significant other at work?

I'm so sick of this agency 🙄

I’ve been hearing and reading a lot of negative things about GUT from friends and on here. Can anyone from GUT tell me if it’s actually a toxic place to work? Or is that just haters hating?

How did your agency handle layoffs? All-agency meeting before they started? After they ended? Both?

Kinda sorta trying to predict if I’m losing my job tomorrow.
