I went through a couple of interviews for a job posting that I wasn’t 100% about, it’s been a couple weeks since and I usually send a follow up right around now, should I still do it even if it’s not a position I necessarily want? Didn’t want to come off rude in case of future opportunities.

Can’t go wrong by taking the high road and maintaining your level of etiquette. Recruiters move around. Never hurts to leave as good an impression as possible.

A couple of ppl in my previous agency, saw a competitor acct try a very interesting idea that we thought was cool — but their execution was super localized, in europe, and was not even done to its fullest potential.

I have never done freelance work and was given the opportunity to take part in a cool project. My problem is it’s a proactive case by a brand new agency and it’s their own project, meaning there’s no client who pays for the work. For them it’s PR for their new business, but I think they’re expecting me to work completely pro bono. It does have potential for a great case and I’d love to have it in my portfolio, but is it reasonable for them not to compensate me? Any tips on how to approach this?
