We ask this a lot to sniff out if you can talk with depth and feeling about it’s creation. Getting all self-righteous like we should know better is a fast ticket out of the consideration set.

Have a a great short summary of the brief, how you got to the idea, and why it worked. Don’t say “er.., I wrote it."

^^blasphemy if you're a copywriter.

@ECD1. Comma after ellipsis? C’mon!

The subtext of every question being asked during an interview is, “are you a likeable person who can sell or are you an asshole?”

Of course they know you wrote it, it’s in your book, but they’ll ask you the question because of the question they’re really trying to answer (see above).

Hi all, recently in touch by Spotify recruiter for a Sec Engineer position for remote EU and was told that range was 60-80 out of base salary and equity. Had 2 years of security experience out of my 4 years. Was also told that there is no bonus scheme or no sign in bonus 😕 Not sure how I feel about this tbh.

What do you think?

Serious billing question - if during the course of the day, you first receive an email from Client A at say 11:10am and you read it, you then respond to it at 12:20pm. You get another email at 2pm from Client A and respond immediately. The next email comes in at 4pm, you read it and respond only at 4:30pm. None of the email responses take more than 3-5mins. You are working on matters for other clients at all other times during the day. How much are you billing for Client A?

Hi peeps!
Got two offers on the table, who love to hear your advice!

- Finance Business Partner for a late stage (Series D/valuation 3B) startup tech company

- Corp Dev analyst role for a listed niche gambling company

The tech job pays 15k more, but from what I can see will be a cluster and super long hours (has EU stakeholders). Maybe a pipe dream, but I want to have a "somewhat" decent wlb while still growing my career toward strategy and finance.

Thoughts on which one is better?
