How many times do I let incoming summers make mistakes before giving them a bad review? Feel like mistakes aren't uncommon in that position....

I don't think it's how many mistakes, so much as them not making the same mistake more than once.

It's more about attitude and how quickly they understand their tasks and the business. Or put another way, should this person be working here long term?

Summer analysts aren't even given enough responsibility to make mistakes.

It's surprising but it's actually pretty self evident if they have what it takes

I look to see if they care enough to not make mistakes again. I remember how many mistakes I made when I was a summer and I wouldn't want to be held to perfection- why would they?

Why are you asking because they don't start until next week

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?

Is it really that difficult to get hired for a federal job? I was interviewed for a GS12 job but never heard back, they still didn’t hire anyone and I didn’t get a rejection. I applied for another GS07 job, was accepted, I took it, but I believe I can do better. I have a master’s and have extra graduate research experience. I am still applying to new jobs but I was told it is impossible to move up the grade level now. Everyone is telling me to stick with the government. What are your thoughts?

Hello 👋

After about 18 months of hustling, I’ve been offered my first AD role. My background is in engineering so for what feels like forever I’ve been building (and rebuilding) my book with creative work and it’s finally paid off 🎉

I want to hit the ground running so I’m trying to learn as much as possible before I start.

Can anyone recommend some books, shows, talks, social accounts etc that I can learn from?

Thank you!
