depends on how you like to work. you won’t get much mentorship or coddling at JL if you’re mid-level, but if you’re bright and a self starter it’s easy to excel here.

Good question!

Might be a UK thing but no idea what JL and FIG stand for, who are those?

They are small boutique agencies here in America. But all you need to know is that Wieden is a place where they would learn better creative strategy.

Seems like you can’t go wrong. But wieden will look best on your resume

I see a few W+Ks on this thread. Just curious why? Outside of the Nike work.

Their NBA JAM work was very solid, I personally liked the Super Bowl Commercial. I know Super Bowl wasn’t anything revolutionary but it was good and entertaining. Consumers loved it, which is the point

I have 60k in the bank and have no idea what to do with it. Ik it’s a sin to have that much in an account and not making it work for me. I’m not saving for any big purchases either. I’m not too savvy when it comes to investing and really want to strengthen my financial/investing understandings. I plan on sitting down with an advisor. Any advice?

Hey People.
I have 2 years exp as a Risk Analyst and want to migrate to being a Buisness Analyst. I haven't been getting a proper job description or work role and responsibility list of a BA. Please help me in this regard.

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Tell us about your business? The challenges and opportunities you faced.

I applied for some senior positions at AbbVie online 2 weeks ago. The status appears as “resume received” for some positions, status of one position appears as “under review” while another position shows “in progress”. Any idea how long their hiring team takes to get back following the application?

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review. This is my third firm in three years (first I left as I was severely underpaid, second I left for a 100k increase in salary), but this lack of respect for my boundaries has made me want to move again once I’ve completed 18 mos. Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).

I’m working on my new hook, but would love to hear yours.
