I work brand side and love my life, WLB and my simple CD role. I used to be driven, chasing titles, top agencies, awards, but now I couldn’t give less fucks of doing groundbreaking work (I have a 3 yo, smthg changed there). Recruiters are reaching out to meet incredible agency leaders for cco positions, and I know the common knowledge is that I should meet and network, but if I’m happy where I am, is it bad for me to decline? Don’t want to pretend and let them on.

I’m graduating in December, with a background in environmental economics and policy. Consulting didn’t work out this cycle. Made it to final rounds for Bain and Kearney but in the end didn’t get an offer. I want to recoup and try again, but I’m worried that once I’m out of undergrad the door will be closed to starting in consulting.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

What should be an expected salary for an experienced hire with 3 yoe joining as a senior associate in MBB?

Been friends with a girl for years (I’m a M). We recently have been getting closer and chatting a lot more. I told her I’m starting to develop feelings for her and that I want us to try dating. She said she’s going through a messy breakup now (wasn’t a clear yes or a no response). Do I continue to get closer to her as friends after that conversation or is it better to give us both space?
