I found out one of my candidates has his own agency he is creating. Should this be a concern such as stealing talent or stealing work if hired?

This is going to become more and more common with the way the market is and the way agencies are being run. So while they should honor an NDA, you may want to play nice with them. You could become the recruiter they hire in a year or two.

Absolutely. I agree with networking.

I man, all the shitty rates and stupid labor market are driving people to just do this. It’s literally easier to win a pitch than to land a job.

I see. I’ll navigate it thoroughly.

It has to be explicit that your company's clients are not theirs. Any contacts they make working for you are property of your company. Does your agency have a policy for that?

I just checked and yes it would be a potential conflict of interest.

I work at a small, 3 lawyer firm. One of the lawyers is not barred in the state we practice. Because of this, the managing attorney has been having him draft motions and other legal documents and use my name and bar number and having me file them because I will have to appear in court for the matter. Is this normal? I am not provided time to review the materials before I file them so I end up working longer days because I am nervous to file something using my name and bar number.

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you
