There are seemingly more firms opening offices, especially in Miami. But the majority of work is limited to M&A and insurance defense (to the extent it’s practiced). A lot of firms are opening for business with LATAM

I just received an offer on a job I would really like to accept. The salary offer is about 25% higher than my current salary, which I am happy about, but is also the low $ on the range I had expressed to the recruiter and the exact $ that I put on the online application (I had to put a $ figure). Am I being greedy trying to negotiate for a bit higher? Do they expect me to counter? I have been burned by NOT negotiating in the past but who can be mad at a 25% increase??

After a hard reset on travel points (got none after Covid and change to industry) how would you start over? Which credit card is best for travel points? Airline? Starwood or Bonvoy? Avis or ??

At one time I had status on most airlines and hotels but I never bothered to focus on accumulating points since it seemed like they were infinite and I booked on convenience. Oh have times changed! I even let go of Amex platinum, just wasn’t worth it to me. Base airport LAX/SNA so no airline pref.

What’s your agency’s hook?

I’m starting a new offering from the ground floor - no existing social clients or work. I’ll be walking into meetings with clients who know me from other agencies, where our hook was “we’re fan-first marketers” or “we are the most premium creative shop in our industry”.

I’m working on my new hook, but would love to hear yours.

Hey Recruiters, stop trying to connect with me on LinkedIn when I don’t know you - no you can’t have access to my contact. When you do send me message, maybe do a little home work. And when you do work with a candidate, update them regularly - it’s not that hard.

I am under qualified for a job that I KNOW I can do. They’ve asked for a certain number of years of experience and I don’t have it. However, I do have some experience in the exact requirements for the role. What can I do to position myself to get an interview from my resume alone? Should I add a cover letter? What should I include? I have 2-3 YOE, but they’re asking for 5.

Anyone have tips for asking for more than you think you're worth? Because of the employment market there's a job which is about a 20K jump for me but it's been open for a year so I'm pretty sure I can get something additional out of them. Would it be appropriate to ask for 10K above the jump? Or should I just count my blessings and leverage my ability to underprice other applicants
