I have a month to month contract with an agency part of a big holding company. They are super busy and need the help. However, it’s the end of the month and another agency reached out for me to come and work on something on very different and it seems like a cool opportunity.

Would I be burning the bridge if I take this other job? Again, contract ends end of week and I think they want to renew.

Anyone here has had a recent experience getting an H1B interview at the Embassy in Costa Rica? How long did it take to get the passport back? Anything else I should know? Thank you!

So much workload here.. working almost 12-16hrs a day.. planing to leave..

So I'm the only black advisor in my office and I feel so out of place. I walk into meeting early and people won't notice I'm there and everyone wears really expensive shoes and clothes. They all have their cliques and then there's just me.

If I was a junior on a team during a campaign launch, is that something I can put in my book? I helped during the concepting phase, was responsible for keeping the boards up to date, and wrote a lot of the supporting materials (print, social etc) but obviously I was not on the shoot or the lead on writing the script. As long as I’m clear about my role is that acceptable?
