Just received a $100k+ contract offer at a FAANG company doing marketing management. Couldn’t be happier! Now all I need to figure out is how to exceed expectations right out of the gate and maneuver to get converted FT. Suggestions welcome!

I just want to say I had no idea clickable hashtags were a thing on here until your post.

Congrats!!!

Your role most likely has an expectations matrix, read it, learn it, live it, exceed it. There is no other way.

Congrats. But why have they offered you a contract role vs a FT one?

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number.

Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?
