I'm eyeing this incredible brand strategy role that has me genuinely excited. Unfortunately, I'm missing a couple of their "must-haves" - like specific platform experience they want. Have you ever said screw it, and gone after the job anyway?

I’m not at CD level yet but I think you should! What’s the harm in going for it? I’m looking for AD roles and see the same problems, it’s like all companies want a unicorn now-a-days but then we’re also taught too it’s not great to be a jack of all trades? These recruiters or HMs need to pick a lane. It shouldn’t be a double edged sword for candidates

Yes. Go for it!

My SO just started with PWC Australia. I might have to relocate to the states in one year. Will it be possible for my SO to relocate to states as well through PWC at around 1 year mark? Does PWC allows that just after/within one year of joining? Assume she'll get L2 through me, if that matters.

Hi all,

After the final interview, HR reached out and said they would like to extend an offer. HR gave a ball park of 135k - 145k base with about 15k in sign-on equity and 20k annual bonus.

After a couple of days, HR person came back with with 125k base and 20k annual bonus. No sign-on equity anymore. What should I do given that these numbers seem way lower than the initial range provided? HR claimed it’s because of “market conditions”.

I just finished what I thought was the final round of interviews for a job that I really want. Everything has been going extremely well. The recruiter just called to tell me that they want me to do one more round, though. This will make 8 interviews total, including a full case study presentation to 4 people. Should I be worried? Is this a red flag?

Any tips on how to deal with this…my entire team was let go today (was 5, now just me). We functioned as the Marketing team for 4 brands and primarily focused on product launches and sustaining social media content. My plan moving forward is to only focus on the top revenue driving product launches for now and say “no” to basically everything else. Would love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.
