Question. Been out of work for a while and a girls got to eat, lol. Insert slight desperation here.
I was reached out to for a short term jr role and I’m curious how this could affect my career trajectory. I’ve already gone from a PM to a producer and learned titles are so interchangeable from agency to agency.

Any thoughts from senior ppl in the biz will be much appreciated.

If you put it on LinkedIn, call yourself a freelance producer. You don't have to write down the exact job title they give you.

I second this! I think many people tend to fluff role titles on their resume and LinkedIn profiles.

I don't think it looks terrible - but are you going to be happy enough there to stick around? Because jumping ship WILL look bad

I think if you need a job, I would take it. You can always take it off your resume later. But your resume won't feed you in the mean time so I wouldn't worry so much about what you are adding to it.

Hi, fishes.
A quick query here.

I'm going to move from non IT profile to IT profile. Basically I'll be applying as front end engineer in new company. Previously I was working in a BPO profile.
Just wanted to ask if I'll be provided training in my initial months as a front end engineer or am I expected to work from the very first day.
Your comments will be really helpful.

Thank you.
