@ACD1 because it’s the best piece of dedicated presentation software most people have access to. And I don’t want to hear it about how InDesign is better. I’m a designer, yes INDY gets your much more fine control, but ever hand an InDesign mechanical to a planner? 🤷🏼‍♀️🙏🏼😢

@ACD1 Google Slides are shit. Just another excuse for people to consider everything in a perpetual state of edit.

Why do you still use Keynote? 😒

Why are you handing a mechanical to a planner???????!!!!

Because I needed to prove to the Account Director that he couldn’t “just make the edits himself."

Google Slides. Duh. Use it, @CD1 😒

Lol you must love being deckbitch and/or you can't design 😂😂😂. You can make duplicates or keep it private til you're done noodling.

How many billable hours per week is considered at capacity? I’m getting pushback on boundaries I’m setting about additional matters and marketing work from my firm when I’ve been billing 60-75 hours per week for the last 6 weeks, and I’m still behind on my work. I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.

I just had my first behavioural interview with VCA for a Digital Consulting Manager role and the Dir said he was going to progress me to the next round.

I have never worked in consulting before, my background is all project management/marketing/advertising and I have an MBA. Wondering if anyone can give me an idea of the type of case questions they've been asked during their interviews for VCA.

Thanks in advance!
