Is your agency doing anything to celebrate pride other than a random zoom conference?

Is Integration Engineer position at Zoom worth joining coming from Software Engineer position?

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

When is it either allowed or seen as OK to start using FTO? I recently started here and while I’m not looking to slack off and take time off, I just want to know how it works.

I could retire (34 yrs), but just don’t want to because I love what I do!

Has anyone seen any unique places to find UX portfolios or post jobs other than the usual suspects?
Some UX Slack channels were doing well for a while but I definitely don’t see as much traction there. Meetups obviously came and went. Even the portfolio sites like Dribbble and Behance don’t seem that same.

Anyone here in partnerships management or business development or strategic alliances development? I’m in a BizOps role today and have been trying to break into this space without much luck. Hiring managers / recruiters always say the same thing when they do give feedback - that they’re looking for someone that has experience in the same role. What’s the best way to break in? It’s not like there are business development classes like there are coding classes where I can learn the job.

Want to get your opinions on the best small agencies in LA in terms of work produced (media and creative)

Has this happened to anyone else recently?

Recruiter on LinkedIn: Hey we saw your work and were impressed with your ____ project. we’d love to setup some time to chat.

Me: ok great. Here’s when I’m free_______

Recruiter on LinkedIn: Sorry have to cancel the meeting, doesn’t seem like your experience matches the job we are currently offering.

This has happened 4 times in the past few months. Like you reached out to me??

My browser history is failing me and hope y’all can help! I recently stumbled upon a website where some ad folks had compiled a bunch of idea/conceptual thinking approaches and if you clicked through there were past spots that had utilized that idea / way of thinking. I wanted to share it with a mentee and can’t track it down. It was a simple layout: grid of images w/headline naming the idea … Sound familiar?

How many agencies give cost of living/yearly raises vs just a “yearly bonus” ?

Here’s to the introverts finally getting a chance to have a little control over how and when interactions happen with others.

I need honest opinions! How do you feel about agencies keeping a person on a Full-Time hourly Contract without any clear sight of offering a permanent Full-Time position?

Is it a reflection of your performance or the employer? What are the pros/cons of being contracted? Thanks!

We’re in such a vicious business. You give your heart & soul to an agency, a client, a brand. Then the wind changes & you’re laid off, reassigned, chewed up, spit out, on to the next. I’m tired.
