I moved to Boston from India with my husband few months ago. Left my job at FCB and now I am back to job hunting. Wondering how difficult it would be to get into the industry without any leads?

Depends on if you need a visa sponsorship and your current position. If you’re mid level (with no visa requirement), it should take about 8-12 (at worst) weeks with aggressive LinkedIn networking

Thanks for responding. :) I am authorized to work in the country.

Hello! Surprisingly, I'm in the exact same stage. I moved to Boston 6 months ago. I used to work at Publicis, Mumbai. Now, looking at gigs in Boston. Nothing concrete so far!

Hey everyone, What would you say is the difference between an account director and a senior account manager.

I’m struggling on how to effectively coach a designer on my team who is a low performer. I’ve been working with them for two years.. but have not seen the growth needed to succeed in this industry.

I’ve tried everything I can think of.. but at this point, account teams would rather request working with interns over this person.

Any advice?
