Next week I’m having my first lateral interview as a junior associate. I’m very nervous because the group with whom I’m interviewing works with life science/tech clients and the attorneys have strong science/tech backgrounds; and I do not. However, I am very, very interested in transitioning to this practice. And I reaaally want this job because it’s at my dream firm. How would you recommend preparing for the lateral interview?

If yes, what is the process?

I have been promised a promotion three times now, but when the time comes, I'm told I'm not there yet. Why promise something if you clearly don't want to execute it?

Hi all! I work in digital marketing / organic social. For those in organic social what platform do you use for scheduling posts, analytics, UGC, managing influencers etc?

Your thoughts and opinion are appreciated with all platforms! :)

What are your favorite coffee shops to work remotely from? Open to any neighborhood—I like trying new places.

10 years sales experience selling eyewear to eye doctors. If I were to transition to tech would I have to start as a BDM? I think that would be a pay cut for me. Thanks

Hi Fishes,
I have been working with Walmart for the past 14 months and have recently got an offer from Blackrock for 45 LPA.
Considering the recession and US market scenario, help me understand if it will be a good move to join BlackRock OR should I continue with Walmart with the current compensation.

PS. I am not happy with growth prospects in the current project in Walmart.

Role : Data Scientist
YOE : 11
C CTC :35 LPA

I’m currently a Grade 11 at Cisco. With the recent pay structure changes my annual comp will be $150k + 12% bonus. I live in a large metro area in the middle of the US. I’m looking to move around the company so that I can make commission but I don’t want to be an account manager. Can anyone tell me if there are Customer Success Managers, etc positions that manage customers post sale and have a similar range base as me with commission plans? I’m just trying to understand income potential.

I have a direct report who is smart, passionate about her job and can be really innovative. However she carries this enormous weight of responsibility, for needing to do everything, do it right, make sure it's perfect, not trusting colleagues to help. It creates dread and panic and overwhelming workload and a terrible attitude for her and I am speaking with her this week to start to shift her mindset. Any tips in navigating how to let go of this heavy idea of "responsibility"?

Can someone please tell me how long Flipkart takes to give the final interview result for developer post.

Question… I’ve got an offer on the table with a company I want to move forward with. I have a bonus coming from my current company… I’ll know how much next week. How do I get my bonus from my current company and give notice in a way that is fair for all and handled with grace? Thanks for feedback!

Looking for a specific Scott Galloway email/post:
Does anyone know the mercy/malice post with the image "when to respond to an email....now/never"
I believe it was in an image of text and not written in the paragraphs. Can anyone point me to this? Thanks.

Makes sense, consulting fundamentally changes businesses internally and advertising fundamentally changes them externally, though syncing those two up will be interesting

I'm about to graduate from uni and have sadly just realised that the creative industries I like aren't going to pay enough, so I want to get into consulting. Ideally in areas like marketing/branding/digital rather than MBB

I have no consulting experience and I have accepted an internship offer at an advertising firm for this summer. What steps would you advise me to take to get into consulting? Also, I get to pick between strategy and accounts for the internship - would either be more useful?

Need an expert in Salesforce (Marketing Cloud x data onboarding). Our agency ♥️s LiveRamp, but have a client needing some Advertising Studio expertise. Freelance/contract opportunity here!

Anyone have a good recruiter at PwC (digital)? thx!

Hi! Has anyone here heard of, or worked at, KERN? What are your impressions of the company and its reputation?

I’d like to better understand if it’s better to stay in consulting with a well-defined career path or to move to Google/Facebook/Amazon with a good level and having the consciousness of being promoted is really hard.

I know of the top-tier agencies (BBDO, DDB, Ogilvy, etc) but I don’t know who the top-tier marketing consultancies are. Is there a real list somewhere, that isn’t filled with design/logo shops?

Cold emailing consultant HR reps for jobs, yay or nay ?

Anyone at Ogilvy Consulting? Can we chat?

Does anyone from agency world to “cagency” world have tips on learning the consulting side? I’m finding as an experienced hire, I lack in some skills such as economics and budgeting.

What are the best consulting/brand agencies for recent college grads to go to? I understand that now isn’t the best time to apply but I’d like to start researching!

I feel strongly that the OS App Store and Product Hunt could learn a lot from each other.
OS Store: Dictator-like in the extent that they control what people see outside the ranked lists.
- Pace of new to market apps is now way faster than turnover in "Most Downloaded" ($100b+ AR company, man..)
PH: Free market w/ OK search/community features. Feels the right amount of gritty. BUT with an overhauled design, PH has a chance to scare APPL + show the world a truly great store/market for apps.

Small Shops and Teams:
What CRM do you use?
Don't have one? Where would you go for recommendations- reliable blogs or other knowledge hubs for small team tools?
Thanks

Does anyone have any recommendations on consulting firms that have a marketing or media practice outside of Accenture and BCG?

Do you have a financial advisor? If so, what firm did you use?
