How do you feel when your work tries to highlight “wins” after they’ve had layoffs? When is the appropriate amount of time do share “wins” after a layoff?

Any realistic exit options from Cognizant? I’m not having luck switching firms.

One partner loves my work! The other partner who I work primarily with literally changes every single word that I write! Wtf

Those in music comms: what are the best labels/agencies to work at?

Same BB58 dude that just posted...Looking to get a Hamilton khaki field mechanical...but can’t seem to pick between white or black dial...also a bit torn if I should get the field mechanical or the Field King vs Murph (as these are a bit dressier)....would be dope to get some thoughts?

Any TIPS on “how to not give up on finding a job”. After many final rounds and ZERO offers, I’m on the edge. It’s a horrid feeling to endure and to end it seems.

Had a final round at BCG last Friday. After the interviews they said that the would release results today. Then I got an email today saying they will only give the results on the next Friday. What could have happened?? I also know some people how interviewed on the same day as mine and got a rejection email today.

I hope my manager rotten in hell!!!!😡😡😡

Non-litigation practice areas in high demand in Florida for a solo?

Anyone able to see the moon in NJ?

I’m looking into exiting consulting and moving into product management. Picked up a few books to read. Would a PM certification provide a lot of value? Any other tips are appreciated! Thank you.

Plan to go to B-school in 3 years (1 year out of UG now). Long term goal is entrepreneurship. Have offers at a MBB firm for a generalist consultant role and at FAANG for a strategy role. FAANG offer is slightly higher (though both are a 50+% bump on my current comp). Both would have me reset to entry level. Which one should I take?

Went into an industry PMO role after consulting and literally hating every second of it after a year. What to get back to more S&O / BizOps focused roles. Any advice from others that made the transition?

How is everyone staying sane as it gets closer to decisions? Already starting to lose my shit...

Wharton calls started for Asia! This has been a really useful and supportive group through the process. Good luck and thanks all!

Any tips on reapplying to MIT Sloan and HBS? Will be reapplying R1 after getting dinged without interview in R2 this cycle. I’m mostly focusing on improving my test score since that was my most concrete weak point, but would love any other insight to help me improve my chances

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)

Hi All,
How's the Job security and WLB for JL 8 (AM) employees in Accenture?
I know it has got a lot to do with the project, I'm assigned to, but just wanted to get an idea. Any insights?

Do agencies rent spaces out in places like WeWork to give teams some autonomy away from the office?

Kudos to the man on the train next to me who has his ticket around his neck, his glasses in his hand and a full sleeping mask on. 😴

When should you stop following up after a great interview? Was told I was too pricey for one market, so they asked me if I would consider another in the future. I said yes, and now it’s been a week.

Thoughts and best practices on sharing examples of strategy work to a hiring manager at an agency under the same holding company as my current agency? How much should I blind the work? What are some rules to remain legally compliant? Or should I avoid altogether?

Can community managers call themselves copywriters?

Given the outbreak, are places actually going to be hiring right now? Recently laid off from 9-5 and my freelance is starting to fizzle.

Today is Women's Day and 'A Day Without a Woman,' -- are you skipping work and wearing red?

I like everything about my agency except my partner. Do I leave if they don’t have the budget to get me a new one?

Been at a new job for a couple of months. Overall it’s been disappointing and I’m starting to feel anxiety for the future. I feel this way because I’ve just been working on one account I really don’t feel will create anything book worthy and I’m afraid that I will have nothing to show after a year. I’d been interviewing with this company for a while (off and on for 7 months+) and during that time made work I’m proud of and as of this past may, is award winning. (continued in comments)

Dogs in offices are cool, but who's offering some comfy siesta benefits? 😴💤

Tired of this constant grind and constant layoff situation in NYC. Thinking of making the move to LA. Any thoughts? Yay or nay?

I worked at a place for 1.5 years. My CD always treat me like I didn't know what I was doing. When I was about to leave he decided to look at my book for the first time and was surprised (cont)

Looking for cost-friendly computer speaker recommendations, preferably not bulky. My laptop and monitor audio is absolutely terrible!

I really think that some large holding companies are ever gonna force us back into the office. My ECD is based on the east coast. All three of the ACD/CD teams they hired in the past six months are east coast based. Our office is in the central time zone. Yet every job posting says “in person”. Seems like they just don’t want to advertise their hiring remote for the attractive accounts.

How long did you stay at your first job?
And what made you change places?

The Ask a Recruiter bowl is ghosting already.

This may sound odd, but can you run an agency without an ECD/CCO?? (Asking for a friend)

Pros and cons of working on an auto brand?

In a typical advertising creative team structure, who vets the new hires? ECD? CD? Trying to get some clarity as I work at a small shop with CD being the highest title.

I've seen quite a few people make jokes about being "aged out" of advertising. Could someone please explain what that looks like and when that typically happens? Forgive the dumb question, I'm a newbie to the industry so I'm a bit confused. Wouldn't agencies want people with more experience?
