I’ve worked two years as a junior copywriter and recently became the sole income earner in my household. How do you position yourself for rapid progression to a senior creative role when your financial situation suddenly changes? I know this growth is slow and steady, but the pressure to advance is real, and I want to do my best to see through it.

I work on a consulting team at a large software company. I’m a job hopper, around 2 years each at my first and second jobs and a little over a year at this job. I recently found out they’re shutting my team down. We’re not fired, but they’re transferring us to the core implementation team, which has a horrible reputation for malignancy, overworking, and isn’t at all what I was hired to do. How hard is it going to be to for me to find a new job? Should I just stay and try things out? What next?
