I’ve been verbally offered a position at a new company, but the recruiter insists on getting a verbal acceptance before sending the offer in writing. This person insists on negotiating salary before sending the paperwork. Generic benefits, RSUs, bonus info have been provided; it’s all unofficial.

This is absurd. Am I missing some “new way” of doing things? Your take?

Greetings from Madison, Wisconsin. I'm a reporter with more than 32 years of experience and I feel that, lately, local television news has been kind of dead, but I am pleased to fight for it from my local newspaper. Locals love to see someone from their own town succeeding or finding out something inspiring.

I am a firm believer that this will not change for a long time, local TV will continue to live as long as we stand for it.

Just started progesterone suppositories. Anyone else worried that you are starting them either too early or too late in your cycle? I read that too early can increase risk of tubal pregnancy…

Recruiter ghosting? My partner interviewed for a lateral position with a mid-sized firm in mid-December. Went through whole process, multiple interviews, etc. (see below)

Favorite creative from a black-owned brand?

Currently working in SEO at a good sized and reputable agency, but looking to get out or transition into more of a general strategy or data focused role. Keep running into roadblocks because all of my roles have been so SEO specific. Has anyone made this kind of move before or does anyone have advice about how to go about this?

Anyone wanna come over? Brooklyn

Any fish in their 30s here?

Working at a place with less then 10% POC total. Then watched as the majority of those folks left after less than a year. This virtual work environment has reminded me how much MAIP used to anchor me to a physical sense of community.

How's our MAIP fam holding up?

Question for 2020 Summit:
1. How should you gracefully handle LinkedIn DMs when being poached at a job you love?
2. What are signs that you should stay at your job vs. move on to something else?

Question I’d like to bring up at the MAIP 2020 Summit: What advice does one have when creating your own role?

#MAIPSummit2020 :

In my experience, it's been considered taboo (especially by employers) for employees to discuss salary with peers. Does this practice help encourage pay inequality? Thoughts?

Typically when someone brings a unique experience or skill to the table they’re compensated for it. surgeons/technicians.
Can we bring this structure to the industry in regard to ethnicity/experience

How do you stay motivated in an industry that is seemingly unimportant when put into perspective of other macro cultural trends and world events?

What is the best way to negotiate salary?

I had a creative Director question my worth and said the only reason I’m in this industry is because of MAIP (as if it was a bad thing). I been unsure how I should handle it and would love advice❤️

#MAIPSummit2020 question:

What's the best way to determine your financial worth when applying for a new/different position?

What are the biggest challenges the advertising industry is facing in 2020?

What are some things you can do when you feel like you aren’t fitting in with your team?

Best summer experience so far @ your agencies?

Question for MAIP Summit: How to successfully transition to client side? What are some tips and things you look for when finding a career outside the agency world.

Are we inviting these c-suite decision makers to our events? Are they showing up when invited?

I’m so burnt out

I've only been in the industry for a few years + am noticing the same tendencies across agencies. How can I promote change w/out stepping on anyone's toes or being labeled "that black girl"?

Signing off now, but if anyone has any questions feel free to reach out on twitter, or IG @3rdgeers

See you all Monday. Promise it’s going to be some next level shit! Don’t miss it.

It seems as though entry level/junior roles in the industry are slowly disappearing. How can young people who haven’t managed to get their foot in the door yet actually start? For not so recent grads.
