I’m a Brit living in the US (for 7 years) but looking to relocate back to UK asap. I’m finding it very difficult to even get a response from job applications, despite a very strong CV and 12 years of relevant experience. I’m in consumer PR but more on the strategy/creative side. Anyone got any insights or leads? Thank you!

I wonder if it’s worth being more explicit about your salary requirements. I’ve interviewed, offered, and been turned down 3 US applicants in the last year because they hadn’t appreciated that $250k in NYC is £150k in London.

My point is more to make it clear in your cover letter that your salary expectations are realigned with UK norms. Or something better worded - you’re the PR guy!

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.
