I’m only a couple of years into advertising, and I’m sure I hate the industry. I’ve got some good work under my sleeve, but I don’t think I can take the non-stop late nights / weekend work any longer. What are some other jobs / industries an AD could easily jump over to that wouldn’t eat into one’s life so much? I’ve been at agencies, but I’ve heard in-house could, at least, be a little better. Thanks in advance.

What’s the best way to break into life sciences VC/PE from a LS consulting background?

I'm the only employee with a background in finance in a tech startup growing at a 300%+ per year. But it's actually my first finance-related experience (interned and now part-time as I'm in my senior year of undergrad) and don't know really how to have an impact as my knowledge is "limited" and have no technical mentorship.

Any advice/mentorship would be wonderful!

1st yr at a nyc v50 firm doing general transactional work. I know the lateral market for transactional lawyers is hot but not as hot for juniors.

Would it look bad on my resume?

Hi everyone! I currently work in an outpatient setting doing individual therapy but am planning to leave my job. I have a handful of patients, some of which have been meeting with me consistently for over 2 years, that I suspect will want to remain in touch after I leave. Has anyone ever done this before? If so, what did it look like for you and the patient? Or do you advise against it and if so why? I’ve been researching this and can understand both sides of the argument. Thanks in advance!
