How is the vibe at Dentsu these days?

PwC is getting a lot of hate out there :(

😭 👶🏿 🌈 🐻. 🚀 🌚

I do prosecution and am looking to lateral. Does anyone have recommendations on firms to consider, or ones to avoid? I’m flexible on location.

Been 2 weeks since the final interview...and nothing has happened yet, not even a reference check. Is it a bad sign? Bay Area

I'm about to graduate from uni and have sadly just realised that the creative industries I like aren't going to pay enough, so I want to get into consulting. Ideally in areas like marketing/branding/digital rather than MBB

I have no consulting experience and I have accepted an internship offer at an advertising firm for this summer. What steps would you advise me to take to get into consulting? Also, I get to pick between strategy and accounts for the internship - would either be more useful?

I’ve been in my current position (Bookkeeper) for 4 years now. I’m highly interested in taking the PHR, and I’m wondering if I would qualify for the 4 year HR professional job requirement to be eligible to test for the certificate. I work for a small business, therefore I do all the on boarding paperwork/payroll. Any advice is appreciated.

What kind of job do audit seniors typically leave for?

Second year associate here. How should I deal with the one partner in my practice group who seems to exclusively give me lousy assignments that we’ll never get paid for? I get great work from everyone else.

Question from a newbie consultant - What are some good online courses/ books to improve consulting skills?

Parental leave: do you have to be at a company or firm for a year before being eligible to take parental leave? Are there any companies/firms that don't have this requirement?

Men any intel on well made white shirts around $100 that aren’t see through? My maker just made their shirts more transparent and lost my business sadly. TIA!

Is there any way whereby we can search vacancies in projects or we have to accept whatever offered to us?

What’s a “science fact” that gets shared around that is very much not true?

I joined my current company 3 months ago when I suffered from depression, but I didn't tell the recruiter or anyone. Now I feel I'm really not able to contribute 100% in my current role, but I don't want to share my depression with my employer. I still need the $. Suggestion please?

Any international transfer suffering from ACCA?

What % of your gross income do you all put into savings?? I have my 401k at 6% (or whatever the min to match is) and then immediate put about 20% straight to savings. Young, but worried for future!

I’ve been having a super hard time concepting lately, especially knowing that the “concept” will mostly serve as a sticker to slap on the cover of a CVA and the top of a website. I feel like every pharma concept I’ve ever seen or created becomes so cheesy once it appears in tactics. Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?

Looking for a Desi inspired gown/dress to wear at my baby shower. What are your favorite south asian online brands to shop? must ship to US and nothing crazy expensive.

Finally wrote the 3 social scripts 2 hours before they were due when I was briefed over 2 weeks ago, what are you doing?

Will it ever not be a boy's club?

Best work of 2019 so far?

I have an idea - before posting something on here, ask yourself: "Can I google that?!" If the answer is No, then it's OK to proceed!:)

What do you guys think of JvM / Sports these days?

If I applied to a company and sent a message to the recruiter on LinkedIn, but they haven’t accepted my connection request or responded to my message, should I follow up with an email a week later? Trying to find the line between enthusiastic and being a weirdo.

I think another offer might be coming soon but I really want a shot at this job.

Future 'Havas Health & You'ers (yes I know terrible name)... what's the verdict. Are they moving the 200 Hudson folks to 200 Madison?

How do you dig into work/life balance in job interviews? What kind of questions do you ask to make sure you’re not just being told a line?

A recruiter from one of the Publicis houses reached out to me about an open position. I'm seeing positions I'd rather have in other Publicis houses. How can I leverage this contact to find the right recruiters for the job I want?

Coming on a year of WFH and Friday doesn’t even feel like a Friday. What are days?

Looking to jump from nonprofit marketing to advertising. Any recommendations on what I need to get down my resume? Looking for entry level ish, (3 years marketing experience) $65k+

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?

How much should a contract ACD charge hourly?

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

Going in house is the move, right?

Just realized it's not Friday ☹️

I have my exit interview tomorrow. Any tips? Have any of you written down what you wanted to say? I’m leaving advertising and moving so I’ll probably never see these people again.

Can someone from Leo Burnett explain why your LinkedIn titles say “Human Being”? It adds an extra step since I have no idea what industry the person inviting me to connect is in or what their title is

Wet mouth noises...😖😖😖🗯🔥

What should you do if they don’t put your name on the credits of work that is yours? Anybody’s had this experience?
