I'm dying to get into Ogilvy but I feel like they might be averse to how social heavy my book is (although I do have a really good client roster/celeb + shoot experience/etc). Any ins/tips?

Love the work they do — it seems like I'd have a lot more chance to produce bigger ideas and projects than I do currently.

The accounts were ones someone would want to work on. UPS, IBM, British Airways, Nestle, Holiday Inn …

Social is where it’s at. I’ve written and produced 4 Super Bowl spots among dozens of well received tv campaigns and no one is interested. If only I had a decent social piece in my book. You’ll be fine. Apply.

They actually are building their social department. So you’d have to apply to Ogilvy PRSI.

Hi everyone,
I want to learn Salesforce Tableau CRM (formerly known as Einstein Analytics) and switch to a different organisation. In my current company stuck in a project where there's no learning scope, no growth and work culture is toxic. Now I'm only going through Trailhead, YouTube playlist videos and practicing hands on in my free personal org. Are these enough to crack interviews or not? I don't have real-time project experience.

New to due diligence and not sure the timeline of projects. Tips to stay organized of the project and timeline, and how to update those leading the deal? Just keep track of new info and provide as necessary?

I am a UX designer and have spoken with a potential client who intially wanted to redesign the navigation and landing page of their site. They showed me analytics saying only .35% of users open the main menu (most access different pages through Google search and then leave the site) so it's not worth the time to redesign. I see a lot of growth potential here, but they don't see the value in good nav if users don't already use it. How do I show them the value of good nav? Should I just let it go?

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
