How does applying to a job at another agency within WPP as a current employee work? There’s been recent conversation that it’s somehow easier now — how?

I thought it was just like applying anywhere.

It’s easier because they are not going to make the agency you’re interviewing at inform your HR until the offer letter. WPP Inside having a job board also makes things easier, though from my experience cold emails work better than job boards.

This is super helpful info. Thank you so much!

There used to be a 10% increase limit. Is that gone too?

I recently just did an internal transfer between GroupM agencies. You can work with the GroupM People team to help facilitate this, and there shouldn’t be any major issues as long as you get a backfill for your current role.

Do you like groupm overall? Thinking about a programmatic role there

Can anybody advise on this of they been through the same.

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem. The interview ended up scheduled for 3:30-4:15, and I'm supposed to be on a 5pm flight out of LGA. Is there a reliably quiet place at LGA to do the interview (I don't have lounge access)? Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?
