I'm thinking about applying for some roles at the mother ship. Should I reach out to my network and try to get a referral, or does it not matter a whole lot?

Definitely reach out to your network. Of course you can apply on your own but a referral (or multiple) will help you get to the top of the resume stack.

Whatever you do, make sure your resume is up to par with the key words the ATS is looking for. If not, the ATS will throw it out regardless of your referral.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you
