I am not a mom yet, but trying to be one soon. I am 35 years and switched to digital marketing 2 years back. I landed into one of the leading global agencies. I was way too older to start off as a performance executive, but I still enjoyed not knowing how challenging agency life could get. There was no proper training, no one to guide you and you just survive! I made a big blunder by not checking the campaigns and the budget overshot massively. Ashamed I left the agency.

Contd - Now I am offered a job at another agency, with the same client who this agency had pitched for and won. Must I take the job or just let the offer slide? What matured advice would the industry peeps lend me? And what must I do?

Take it. Everyone makes mistakes and your agency accounts for that in its financials.
