If you were a junior creative with some experiences in big network agencies, what would you choose between these two :

A - Big network agency, working only on one account but doing potentially award winning work. Very ambitious and talented team.

B - New unknown agency with a small network backup but several accounts, competing for new clients and the will to win awards too. Two creative teams for now but lots of ambition and possibly more growth and potential to evolve as a junior creative.

At my current firm, been seeing a lot of people get extended until eternity on the same project / clients. One of the big draws of consulting was the variety, which I am not getting here. Just signed with an MBB. Will I finally get project variety or will I continue to work at one client for up to a year?

Anyone make the jump from legal practice to being a professor with a similar pay range? I always thought if I didn’t practice law I would’ve liked to teach. Not sure I can give up the pay I have now, but would be really cool if I could get a gig as a professor that had a similar salary to what I currently net.

Hiya! I was wondering if anyone here has any good recommendations in terms of books or learning material that I can pick up to learn about sales and marketing relevant to the consulting industry?

Should I take this role?
Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t be necessarily grow my network, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)

Hello, please help to enable DM

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role and after speaking with the hiring manger I’m being asked to do a written assignment. The assignment is creating 4 separate strategies around different areas. This will take quite a bit of work. 1-2 strategies seems reasonable but 4 seems like a lot. I asked the recruiter how in depth they are expecting me to to go and she said “as much as I’d like to. It’s up to me and what I see fit.” Does this ask seem reasonable? Have others experienced this?

Happy Friday! Does your org offer summer Fridays? My org is closed on Fridays in August.

How’s your holidays so far? Dreading seeing the folks, falling behind on work, or praying to g-d for success this year?

Best opportunities out of MBA with a data & analytics background? I’ve enjoyed how much I’ve learned through projects with R, Python, Tableau, etc and would like to start being more intentional about a direction for the long term. I hear about PM but only to the extent of what seem like buzzwords

It’s such an unsettling feeling to want to hear from someone and not want to at the same time. I’m shocked I haven’t thrown my phone against a wall. My mind wants a Rage Room but my body is exhausted and just wants sleep.

Any MBAs here that competed in a case competition or an entrepreneurship case competition and willing to chat?

Hi Fishes,
I'm currently working for a fintech firm as SQL Developer which has got me into a toxic working culture(zero support from colleges) with no learnings so far.

Although, I'm from a Commerce domain..I wanted to move into Data Analytics so I learned SQL and Tableau on my own to get myself better Data Analytic job opportunities to build my career in.

However, without any live projects and hands on experience on the tool, I could only learn a few things about these two mentioned tools. So

How do you shed your ego?

Do you think any ECD, CCO from top agencies (you know important people) spending any time on this app? Or is it just all of us trying to learn from each other and maybe vent out sometimes?

Is the only way to get a great raise jumping companies? Is it hard to get a raise from being promoted within? (Wondering if its true what everyone says) .. What is your experience with this? :)

SF/LA ACDs and CDs in big tech (FAANGs, not unicorns or other startups) - how many YOE do you have and what does your comp look like? Currently at a unicorn and curious 🙏

I have a CD title but swing between imposter syndrome and bitterness that I am underpaid/undervalued and want to hear from others if I would ever be taken seriously elsewhere. I make 108k/NYC at a non-agency “media company”. I have no prior relevant experience for this role, I just sort of fell into it. I draw storyboards, strategize, write scripts, make decks, direct shoots, art direct/set dress/food style shoots, am on screen talent/creator, etc. No direct reports. Been here 2 yrs. 😕

ADs & Designers, what are your go-to books & vids on expressive, interesting typography?

I switched to a small agency and I can’t believe I’m saying this but I am HAPPY. I am feeling CREATIVE. My bosses are supportive and smart. My clients (national brand names) are appreciative, collaborative, polite and smart. It exists but I’m still pinching myself every day.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but take your vacation days

Looking for examples of live action spots that feature a non-human character doing regular human things. Example: Cadbury Gorilla.

What are some hard skills you’ve learned that have helped propel your career and earning potential?

Fresh out of school all I knew was print and static digital design. Over the years I had self taught myself UI/UX, video editing, and 2D motion design. Having these skills in my toolkit has allowed me to move ahead and more than double my salary in 3 short years.

I’ve been stagnating for a while now, but I’ve been eyeing learning Cinema 4D and getting into AR design as my next skill set.

When a job app asks you for a link to your portfolio do you put your password into the field as well? Just concerned it will ruin the hyperlink and the recruiter will skip me.
