Good Afternoon. I have been with my current company for ten months. They quickly realized that I was overqualified for the position I was given. I have been increasingly given more responsibility and even more side projects. I have also been proactive and searching for internal positions that fit my skill set. Can I get suggestions on when would be the opportune time to ask for a raise? Should I wait until my one year anniversary? How should I go about this?

Can anyone help to let me know the pay structure in taiwan for 9 year experienced with masters.

I once asked a colleague at a radio company how much he's paid monthly, and he outright refused to tell me. In fact, he found it very odd that I asked. I later learned that he was making double my salary. I know it's not an employee's job to fix pay inequity by sharing their salary figures, but I'm still of the opinion that it helps uncover pay gaps. But do you think it's wise to do so at the risk of damaging your work environment or the whole thing backfiring on you? Thoughts are welcome.

I had my Assessor interview this past week and received a pre-screening questionnaire that asked about dual citizenship status. Because I don't even have a passport for the country I am a dual citizen for, I didn't even think about the possibile complications this could lead to with my application. I applied through a career fair at school and didn't see the citizenship requirements, so I guess that's on me.

Hi all,

We are at MicroFocus looking for C/C++ Developer with YOE 4+.
Please dm asap for referral.

Moved to the city about 6 months ago and I’ve been disappointed in my experience. I know the pandemic is playing a factor but I didn’t expect the winter days as gloomy as they’ve been. For those who have lived here for a while, is this normally what the winters are like? What do you do to keep things interesting when you can’t go outside? Last two months have made me consider moving but part of me feels like I won’t have given the city a fair shot

Just wanted to confirm if we have an option for buyouts during the NP,is it normally negotiable to 30 days,how does it work?

Signing off now, but if anyone has any questions feel free to reach out on twitter, or IG @3rdgeers

See you all Monday. Promise it’s going to be some next level shit! Don’t miss it.

Saneel, do you have any tips on how to leverage a media background to transition into brand strategy?

How's our MAIP fam holding up?

How did you know this industry was for you? How did you end up in advertising and what made you stay?

Love my agency’s culture, perks, teams, etc. and don’t see myself leaving for quite some time. Is there such a thing as staying at an agency too long?

I've noticed a lot of creatives have trouble transitioning from a Senior Creative role to Assistant Creative Director and Creative Director roles. What advice do you have for making that transition?

What are some tips to establish a healthy balance of work/life and avoid burn out? I find that it’s so easy to start obsessing over the emails and work that is still left to be done.

What are the biggest challenges the advertising industry is facing in 2020?

I’m so burnt out

I had a creative Director question my worth and said the only reason I’m in this industry is because of MAIP (as if it was a bad thing). I been unsure how I should handle it and would love advice❤️

Question for 2020 summit:
Is there ever a perfect time to switch your role in an agency (Strat to account, account to creative etc.)? Or do you have to start from the ground up?

I’ve spoken to a POC who says DEI feels exclusionary in her opinion, because she wants to help everyone. Have you ever worked with a POC who are not interested in the DEI initiatives?

Do you have any tips/advise for someone who was laid off recently and early in their career?

Is food something we can discuss for the Summit? If not, can we address tokenism in the industry? Like what are actionable steps to break out of that in ‘diverse’ agencies? It’s hella annoying.

How do you stay motivated in an industry that is seemingly unimportant when put into perspective of other macro cultural trends and world events?

Working at a place with less then 10% POC total. Then watched as the majority of those folks left after less than a year. This virtual work environment has reminded me how much MAIP used to anchor me to a physical sense of community.

Question for 2020 Summit:
How do you go about having a conversation about transitioning roles to a different department? Who do you talk to and how do you navigate that conversation?
