How often is advisable to reach out to resourcing managers at agencies for freelance and contract work? Squeaky wheel gets the grease (like weekly) or more like monthly?

Hard to say. I’ve noticed those hiring could have different titles on LI. Sometimes, they’re labeled as Recruiters, Resourcing Managers, Head of Creative Operations, Head of Talent, etc.

Overall though, it never hurts to reach out. Worst they say is they’re not the one who handles that or directs you to who does.

A quick monthly is good. They’re likely to already have added you to a roster if they anticipate booking you at some point.

First time poster here!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

I expressed a need for a promotion or raise to compensate for the major increase in responsibility, a responsibility that is not currently in my description.

They pushed back.
