It’s very difficult to become a resident of Canada. Good luck!

But still much easier than it is to become one in the States...

I guess the grass is always greener... but you do have a much more stable political climate! That’s a major plus :) and better healthcare...

Hey everyone, What would you say is the difference between an account director and a senior account manager. I was just promoted as an account director when I quit my job and moved to the U.K and now having so much trouble finding a job as an AD. My last interview feedback was that they really liked me but felt like I was lacking new bizz skills and that the organic business growth opportunities I found and jumped on were “luck aka right place at the right” moment kinda thing?

What do you do with a Staff with ~1 year exp that legit won’t work. For example, you give them a simple task at 10am that should take 3 hours max, they ignore your check-in messages and then ask if they can give it you in the morning. They never ask questions. Morning comes and they still didn’t do it. When they finally do it, it is riddled with errors and clearly shows they didn’t try. Working under tight deadlines, this staff is killing me as I cannot rely on them at all. What would you do?

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
