I’m looking for some advice on approaching a promotion conversation.

I’ve been told there are a few milestones I needed to hit to move up to senior AD and I feel like I’ve ticked those boxes since my last chat with my ECD.

Now I’m just figuring out the best way to bring it up. Should I approach it as a check-in on my progress and their plans for me? Would love to hear your thoughts.

I have cleared CTS interview and have asked for 21lpa with 6 yoe in automation testing. Do they give that much with the yoe I have ?

Is it possible to go from hating your job/dragging through the day to liking it by working on changing your mindset? Any advice?

Is there special experience or knowledge you'd need to be effective at a GCD level in Pharma? Or is it like any other account, just different products? I'm considering making the switch from general market advertising.

COO’s & previous SR. account executives…

I made it to regional manager for a franchise by age 22. Ran a successful financial practice & sold by the age of 33. Took 2 years off and built a health & wellness coaching platform for my wife (medical provider). Then, the last 2.5 yrs, have been a top producer in Saas sales as a senior account executive. I’ve been told I would make a great COO someday and I’m ready to take the next step into leadership. Who/what should I be targeting next?

What do you do when you feel the goalpost has been/is being moved re: billable requirements? Like there's a spoken vs unspoken? I chose this job based on billables vs salary and what I'm being told I'm expected to do now is 20-30% (at least) > than what was initially agreed upon. Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.

Hello fishes, I am looking for a part time UI UX role to expand my knowledge on a single product.
Let me know if there are any opportunities available.

Nielseniq have onsite opportunities outside of India ?

Last associates committee meeting is coming up. Partners have asked each associate to come up with... not one... but FIVE marketing ideas. Other than reeling out “we offer competitive pay” in job postings, what are some good ones your firm does?

I’m struggling a bit. If I knew how to market well, I certainly wouldn’t be in this position.

A friend was rewatching old episodes of Suits, which admittedly I’ve never seen. The main character starts at this law firm where associates are given cubicles not offices. There’s no way that’s accurate, right??? I have a cube but I’m just a lowly gov atty frm a state school LOL not a Harvard law alum at a reputable NYC firm

Hello. I am new and I wanted to get some advice.

Heads up: I don’t have dm open yet.

I don’t really know what to do as a career or anything anymore. I’ve been trying to find part time work for the time being. I feel like I have 0 skills when I try to look for work. I currently do freelance art. I enjoy it, but I don’t make enough yet. I previously did IT work— but became burnt out and have been out of the field for ~3 years. I am trying to learn programming, but for myself—not job ready.

Hi everyone,
I gave TCS interview 5 days back.
Today received a mail, asking to upload documents at TCS IBegin.
Does this mean that i am selected ?

Question! I just moved(transferred) to another team of my company and received new title, graphic & creative services. I was a senior graphic designer at the previous team. What do you think about my new title? I know that title is not a big thing but why I feel like my title is downgraded here… Good thing is my jobs here at my current team are what I really wanted to do. This is amazing. I love my new team and people here! Super healthy working environment! But just curious about the title.

Transactional associate. Lateraled 6 months ago and one of the biggest pain points has been my new firm’s inclination to “hop on a call”, which of course requires every single stakeholder to join. The end result being every call has 25 people on it and nothing actually gets done because no one wants to ask a question that could come off as silly. It’s destroying my ability to get anything done during the day. It’s a complete performance and it drives me nuts.

With a recession around the corner - two questions:
1) will there be layoffs at Deloitte? My concern is we hired so much ppl this year.
2) will there be more work in org design? Just saw the Robinhood 9% workforce layoff announcement.

Dear TCSers,
How many of you are still Working from Home? Is WFO is not mandatory for everyone?

Have you ever got caught freelancing for another agency while you’re full time at different one?

I hate that I feel sad I’ve never had my work enter for awards. My feed is flooded with everyone’s success. Should this define me? Why do I care so much when there are bigger problems in the world?

If you got fired today would you have a Bach up plan? What would it be?

What should you do if they don’t put your name on the credits of work that is yours? Anybody’s had this experience?

Facebook shutting down Oculus Story Studio... VR dead?

“Can we change all the instances of ‘we’ in the script to be [our brand name]? Just to remind my listener who we are throughout.” 🙄

No one—of any age, on any occasion—ever—says “It’s easy as 1 2 3!” And yet every now and then, even now, you see it as a line (junk mail mostly). Did anyone EVER say it, outside of advertising?

not to ask a stupid question but how do you industry twitter??

do you just start replying to peoples tweets because you think they're cool or is that creepy

This is my first post on here as an ACD! Who else is rolling into 2022 with a promotion?

Given the outbreak, are places actually going to be hiring right now? Recently laid off from 9-5 and my freelance is starting to fizzle.

Best work of 2019 so far?

Looking for advice in what to ask for when you get the call to be let go.

How did your agency handle layoffs? All-agency meeting before they started? After they ended? Both?

Kinda sorta trying to predict if I’m losing my job tomorrow.

Do brand design / strategy shops have better w/l balance than advertising?
