Is it dangerous for me to reach out to a recruiter who is recruiter for a gig within the same network that I am in? A recruiter posted about an opening in a wpp agency and I’m in a wpp agency currently

Nah. It should be fine as long as you spend more than a year at your current agency.

You’re fine

It’s ok for you to approach them. IDK how it is in WPP, but in Omnicom, a recruiter isn’t supposed to approach any talent from the same holding agency. The talent has to initiate the contact or apply for them to pursue. I know this, because there was someone I wanted to hire from another Omnicom shop and the recruiter told me she couldn’t approach them unless they applied or inquired first. It’s because of non poaching rules within the network.

Okay, it’s time to stop putting on a face about this. I love my boyfriend so much, but covid is ruining us. We are both still WFH and argue every few days about the dumbest stuff. My and his mental health are both diminishing and it feels like an impossible trench to dig out of. My stomach hurts every time we fight and I (independent of him) feel so stuck in this horrible global crisis. I don’t want to lose him, but I need to figure out how to dig us both out of this unsustainable mental state.

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve
