I love the agency life and all the excitement around it, but I want to finally start feeling like I have a job that allows me to plan trips once a year, and buy a house... and this just isn't it. I've heard there's more money in healthcare advertising, but I'm afraid I won't fit in. Do you think I can make the shift easily? If not, what are going to be the biggest struggles I'll face?

Which platform should I look after for a good gated community house

Have any of you taken "low bono" clients while working at a firm? I want to take on a low bono client or two but not sure who would get the money. This is a contract opportunity through a non profit so I'm assuming a 1099 will be issued. The per hour rate is significantly less than my billable rate. I would (obviously) like the money but my real objective is just getting experience/networking since I recently moved to a new state and don't have clients of my own.

Is anyone else experiencing this in their market?

Cold applied for an awesome role, had an interview with hiring manager, recruiter, and given a pretty hefty assignment that I’m really proud of nailing. They followed up with an email asking for 4-5 days that I am available for a full day of interviews.

Pretty jaded. What can I do? Already followed up
