I am a 2nd year Engagement Manager at PwC UK and have given an interview at Deutsche Bank in a “Change Management” role within TDI. The role was advertised as a VP level role but seems like HR is really pushing hard to go for an AVP role, even though DB is a client and I am already doing VP level role as an external consultant at the DB.
Do people generally transition into AVP roles from managers in big fours in the UK?

No.
I would be looking for director myself

I haven’t seen any such precedent - if you’re a very senior SM in big four, you could push for a Director. In my case even VP is getting difficult as HR is pushing hard (though hiring manager was fine)

VP is the right level you should be going for. Anything lower is a no-go.

How did you get on and what was the base salary offer?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Hi, this is mostly a question for account management and strategists. I’ve been in advertising for a while, and am back in this market after working in others. The main thing I’m noticing that is driving me bonkers is the lack of client talent here. Across the portfolio I oversee it is very rare to get a client that understands how to brief an agency partner (creative or media or pr); there is limited capacity to really focus on objectives other than tactical KPIs.
Is this common/any advice?
