I always ask first 1-2 rounds be via phone and “lunch-adjacent hours, e.g. 11 am — 2 pm”. Then, if they wanna fly me out, it’s on them. And suddenly my other grandma died. Again

The agencies at which you are interviewing should be a little more respectful for your time, knowing that you have a job currently. Have you had discussions with any of them asking if there is a way to set up meetings where you don’t have to take days for off? Imagine how fucked of a place it is to work if they can’t get their shit together for an Interview process.

Are there any agencies where creatives actually have good work-life balance in LA, SF or anywhere else for that matter? Like no weekends or no working more than a 40-50hr week? Or do I have to go in house for this? Or do I have to leave advertising altogether?
