I got fired without notice a day before my meeting with the president of the agency. My boss( talented) always turned down my ideas saying it was not in the scope of my job to think. What do I do?

Keep your meeting with the president. Maybe bring up your boss said it's not your job to think. See how well that goes for your douchebag boss.

Creative, SEO, PPC, etc? If you have skills more on the digital marketing side, you can apply to iProspect!

Just don't say you got fired in your next interview. Keep Publicis on your LinkedIn as your active workplace until your next job, and say you can start in 2 weeks from your offer letter

That sucks, but a shitty boss isn't your problem any more (congrats!). Move on and pretend you quit or a contract ended with your next gig. Don't burn your bridges - at least until you're gainfully employed elsewhere. If you really feel like it a labour lawyer can tell you if you have a case but I doubt they'll say you can do anything.

Have a meeting scheduled with my boss tomorrow with no explanation. Think I’m getting fired because I’ve been making mistakes recently. I’m not handling this well and I’m feeling tempted to use. I know if I do get fired I’ll be a mess.

My boss fired me because i ask for clarification on my employment right.

I got hired not long ago. I realise some of the employee benefits i was told (missing in the contract) contradict with what’s stated on the law. So i email the boss about it and ask for clarification. Immediately after the email i was fired.

Just want to make sure people know this and don’t apply jobs in this shady company- it is called UniQ Biotech, in Delta, BC, Canada

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)

TIA ♥️
