Looking for some perspective. After going through multiple interviews and being transparent with HR about my minimum salary expectations early on, I received an offer that was significantly lower than what was discussed. It’s frustrating to invest so much time in the process only to feel like expectations weren’t aligned. Has anyone else experienced this, and how did you handle it?

Well, you have a few choices - 1) take the role, 2) don't take the role, or 3) try to negotiate a better salary. Be warned that if you try that and they don't want to pay more, you will have also lost the position.

Thank you, I appreciate your feedback.

Just wanted to say the brand I work for hired a 55+ yo Creative Director and I am STOKED. He is seasoned, smart, kind, and elevates voices, is just generous and classy af. This is refreshing as I’ve know one too many conceited and elbow-shoving CDs at agencies I worked at. He’s the highest ranking Creative without the inflated title too. So happy to see there’s a future for us (well at least brand side for now).
