Okay let's say I got a job in the marketing department at Netflix. Would it be a plus to have a company like them on my resume, or make it harder to get back into an agency later on?

Will you make epic Netflix stuff? If so. Take it. That's like the dream client and your book will take you anywhere.

If they leave their cool stuff to the agency and make you guys write emails, be careful.

Follow the work. Your book > resume.

Definitely Netflix. If you've never seen their culture deck, Google it. They have a fascinating company culture that they legitimately follow. Agencies could take some notes...

What copywriter1 said. Ask questions about what they do in-house vs the work they push to their agencies (tactfully of course). Its possible they have "creative" teams who just iterate all the junk they don't want to pay an agency for. If the work is legit tho, zero problem getting back to agency.

Hey, don't worry. It's not hard to get back in the agency world, especially when the line between ATL and BTL is so blurred nowadays. You will be fine. I spent some time writing for a competing streaming TV outlet, and all everyone ever wants to know is what that was like. Go fig.

So that was literally me 3 years ago and they gave everything good to their agencies and asked me to build a database for banner ctas...the people were amazing and it seems like the industry is swinging client side, so depends on what you're looking for. Good experience? Maybe not. Prestige and a chance to go back to agency with a hefty pay bump? Yah.

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

I had an initial interview on Wednesday. About an hour later, I got a call from an internal recruiter from the same company wanting to follow up and see how the interview went. I didn’t see the voicemail until the following morning when I was at work and called her back that afternoon when I was out of work. I still haven’t heard from her. Is this normal? Should I not try calling back again? I’ve been at my job for several years, so I am unfamiliar with how I should handle a situation like this.

In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people.
