I was coming out of portfolio school, so that really helped.

I graduated from ad school. I was broke as hell and about to take a job at Starbucks to hold me over. That’s when Zimmerman hit me up about an amazing opportunity. Needless to say, I had a great time working at Starbucks.

Sad 2 - i just graduated from ad school and it’s definitely borderline recession right now. I think no one is unaware of that. People have been awesome and seem to like me but just have nowhere to put me. Just a bad time

I had a really hard time, even with portfolio school, awards, and great internships. Sometimes its just luck and the timing of the market (unfortunately for me and my classmates- graduation hit during the recession). Keep reaching out to people you know and keep your chin up! It will work out in the end if you stay persistent.

Lucky bastard. I ask because I can barely land one

My first offer was at grey and I turned it down. Probably one of my not so great decisions in life....

🙋🏻‍♂️

I do currently. People are going to shit in me for this but it's been incredibly difficult trying to choose between a dream agency and a chance to stay near family who is ill. It's a wealth of riches and also the hardest decision I've ever had to make.

Jc 1 - sounds truly horrible. Really...

I had two offers - big agency ($) and client side in house shop ($$). I used client side offer to negotiate agency offer and ultimately went to the agency side

EY Deloitte PwC people - would you leave your current employer for a 15%-25% total comp difference? This translates to a 25-45k difference per annum, largely driven by bonus at the new firm (20-40%), much smaller than my current employer. Doesn’t feel like a great exit opportunity - currently at big 4 this would be moving to a niche consulting company

If 2+ people submit a referral on your behalf at their company for a position you recently applied for, does it make you stand out even more/increase your chances of getting an interview vs. just 1?

I’ve heard hiring really tapers off between Thanksgiving and New Years. If that’s true, when does it usually pick back up? I’ve been interviewing for industry jobs for a month now (I think I’m using the wrong recruiter), and I’m getting worried I’ll be stuck for busy season.

I have a Master’s in Accounting, and have 1 more CPA test then I’ll be done. Not sure if I have a strong enough resume to receive decent exit opportunities as a first year associate. I’m about to have busy season again and work 60,70,80,90 hour weeks at my low salary. Please advise!!

Hi all, was hoping for clarity on offers from FANG/Tier 2 tech I received recently. Base pay is still within range of 130-150K, but equity components have dropped dramatically. For reference, for similar positions, I was receiving grants of 150K - 200K over 4 years for data analyst positions (4-5 YOE) in Aug’21-Feb’22. For personal reasons, I did not accept these offers. Now the equity grants are coming in like 50-70K over 4 years. Is this market wide for non SWE/PM roles due to stock market?
