Happy Wednesday! I am trying to plan with our AP and climate lead on what we can do in distance learning as a school wide event. I suggested we still host our multicultural club assemblies on zoom for the school. Anyone have experience with zoom assemblies to promote a positive climate in DL? Thanks!

Can’t tell if I’m developing crushes on my coworkers only because they’re the only people I interact with (on zoom) in quarantine 😬

Who successfully avoids turning on their Zoom video for most meetings? I always use the excuse of weak internet connection, and it usually works 🤔😏

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

After building up the members, we can arrange a Zoom speed dating call! Open to other ideas as well on how to use this for people looking to date

One silly question
I have just joined Deloitte and wanted to know whether ppl here ping normally on teams or skype?

Especially European fishes: how do you zoom out of these nuclear threats?

Anyone combine ADHD meds with Nootropics? I do a lot of work in the startup/VC community and it seems everyone in that world is obsessed with nootropics. They have private message boards, meetups, etc., just to discuss the topic. I know at least a half dozen companies that have very active Slack channels on the topic where everyone from the CEO on down debates various cocktails, programs, brands.

Am I missing something? Last I read the research was VERY inconclusive.

Hi! Question. How does your company handle the communication between customers and solution engineers during integration? Do you use Slack, Jira, etc? We are using Slack but some customers won’t use Slack so then it’s bleeding over to other forms of communication that are less ideal. I’m starting to wonder if we would be better off doing Jira tickets. 🙃

Do you all rate yourselves higher than you maybe deserve when it comes to self evals? I tend to be highly critical of myself/suffer from imposter syndrome a bit but also realize I can lack motivation/slack off at times. Not sure if I should try to oversell myself a bit or be honest. For reference, my company’s rating scale is out of 5 with 3 being performs jobs well and 4 and 5 exceeding. Going back and forth between 3 and 4.

I love teaching art but am having to teach remotely to 1150 kids, k - 5. Have about 54 amazing elementary art teachers in my district that share SO much! I could retire (34 yrs), but just don’t want to because I love what I do! Feeling like my students aren’t getting what they should because I am struggling with Zoom, Microsoft, safe YouTube, bitmoji, embedding, downloads, editing, etc. Anyone else feeling this way?

Any advice on quitting without a two week notice? I’m at a regional boutique and we’ve had 3/4 of our other analysts leave and I’ve had to pick up the slack with no comp increase. I’m absolutely done and do not want to give a notice. My associate or VP who left earlier this year can be used as a reference so I’m not worried about that. Is there anything else I should make sure of before I leave?

Almost done with second weeks in industry. I absolutely LOVE IT! Ive been making a point to reach out to people from different teams via Slack and arrange a quick meet and greet zoom call. Been introducing myself mostly to the heads of each department, head of marketing, head of sales, head of product development. to get a better idea of what everyone does, and asked sales/product for walkthroughs of the products so that I know exactly what we offer as a company

Any Slack channel recommendations for Operations, leadership, project/program/product management? If so please share the link!

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!

Anyone have experience in construction law? I'm full time in-house but my company doesn't mind if I take on other work. Is it typically transactional? What are the pros and cons? Thanks in advance for any thoughts/advice!

I did it guys.
I have fought through the traveling hordes, braved the slow AF security lines, and survived planes full of crying babies and sockless feet.
I'm home.
I am a holiday travel survivor.

Former Ad Gang,

Which careers have you gone into when leaving the industry? Do you regret leaving?

Is it normal that the AD works faster than the CW, I thought it's the other way around.

How can I be happier at work? I found myself keep comparing me to other colleges and feel I’m not as recognized or taking credits that I suppose to take, and this makes me unhappy and exhausted. FYI I’m competitive in skills and knowledge but not as good in politics and often feel tired to think about it. I also tried to not care about the recognition but then how do I make sure I get to move my path up and forward in the current role?

Came across a book who ripped off our spot, claimed it as theirs. The person has no history of working for company after I left. Thinking of sending them an email virus...or a wtf email 🤔

Curious about our industry makeup.

Average salary for a strategy director in NYC at a creative agency ?

Allstate Leaves Burnett. McDonalds leaves DDB. Large agencies/Conglomerates are cracking. Reasons? Is it about the bottom line or the work? I say it’s all about the money. Thoughts?

What do you think about agencies that doesn’t have art+copy partners? Mine has one copywriter for 3 art directors.

98% of the clients we present to are only concerned with anticipating how the people above them are going to react to the creative. Zero thought given to how the audience will react. Sorry...venting.

Thoughts?

Hi everyone, I’m a new grad currently gaining my first year experience doing ad ops at an agency. Was wondering if anyone would be willing to share any career paths they may have taken after a year or so working in ad ops. Not sure if ad ops will have opportunity’s for me to grow or if I should pivot to a different department in marketing. Thank you.
