Is it ok to try to connect with potential employers via LinkedIn after an interview or is it kind of creepy? I had an interview yesterday at a place I really liked but I want to keep my cool.

It's absolutely okay if it went well. Perhaps do it in a few days. No idea what most of folks above are talking about that it's a mistake.

It’s creepy, unless they connect with you first.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals.

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
