How do you answer the question “what’s your process like”? I tend to ramble simply because I have no concrete process.

I like to take a day or two to myself and do as much research and reading as I can before brainstorming with a partner. Also like to bring some rough ideas to the table before we meet. But that’s if timing allows of course!

like

same. always hated when partners wanted to go find a room and brainstorm right away with no prior thinking or research. always felt like the ideas were super hack and surface level that way. but it can be a good way to get some of the lame ideas out of the way quickly. or immediately hear your partners perspective on the brief and expand your mind. if that happens then i would still go concept on my own after and then bring them to the next concepting meeting

Deadlines can induce anxiety attacks for me. I worked through the weekend and just woke up to a (nice!) email from the client asking about progress. We're not going to hit deadline. This caused an all-out anxiety attack at 6:30 am and now I have to somehow get myself together and work.

How can I have a healthy relationship with deadlines? That "good and done is better than perfect" saying is nice, but expectations are very high. I just want to stop feeling this way. Therapy helps, kind of.

Today I had a very transparent conversation with my TA Director. I was not eligible for the merit increase due to my start date. I was very open about wanting to grow with an organization and even talked about hoping that they could rectify this in someway. She mentioned that she was going to look into it with her boss to see where they can meet me at. Or do you think I overstepped the line By being so transparent about my wants for compensation and within the organization?

Has anyone else ever felt like they had to choose between design and advertising? I feel like I’m at a crossroads and my portfolio as it stands is 50/50. I always thought it was good to be able to do both, but I’m hearing feedback that I need to focus on one or other in order to move up the ranks. Curious what others think.

So, I fucked up a bit. Was interviewing with the recruiter and they asked me my rate — I went low as I had a number for a senior role.
