I’m a media planner looking to get over into the creative side (account management, strategy, etc) what is an equitable position that I can look into? Can I jump straight into being an account exec?

Shouldn’t be an issue if you do your homework on what they do and sell the story on why you would be a good fit or how you have already done it. If you have time, learn verbiage and duties (creative testing, brief development, trafficking, terminology). Likely a lateral move but can come with a pay increase. Good luck.

Comms is the usual move and you can sell a vision of your ability to impact creative briefs with audience insights and media opportunities.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.

Hi all, has anyone in supply chain taken one of the certification exams? (CPSM, CPSD, CSCP)
Does it help in any way besides refreshing contents about supply chain? I was thinking might be a good way to strengthen my resume (most of my career in investment analysis) but not really sure if it really brings that much value. Any insights appreciated. #supplychain #cpsm #cpsd #cscp #education #certifications

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!
