Seriously stupid question here: I have been applying for jobs, and I get the normal rejection- totally fine and expected. I have seen how bad the economy is! But is there any way around making a cover letter that feels a bit more universal? I've essentially been custom-making them for the respective company, and that's been just such a timesuck and, quite frankly, tedious! Any advice??

Hey all, please give me some ❤️ so I can send a dm

At any level above Senior, how do u manage the relationship between utilization and realization, which is an inverse relationship. Seems to be either blow the budget (and write it off), or eat a lot of time.

Hi all
I started out as a graphic designer. Worked for about 4yrs in different roles. Then i started a digital design role for 2 yrs and then made my transition into ux. i have been in a ux role for 5 years. But i want to steer my career towards something more creative. Like in 5-10 years I wouldn’t want to be a specialist or a ux director. I d like to be an art director or creative director. I love branding & marketing but also product. Would love something that allows me to do both?

“I mean if you need me I will be around...like in my house... not doing anything”

BROWARD COUNTY, FL NURSES…can anyone refer me to a good PCP. mine is lacking.

Rumors that an NYC-based PR company may be in the midst of organizing. They'd be the first in our industry, but still no advertising agencies yet!

How’s RGA for a CW?

Has anybody on the more junior side asked a new firm to move out of state (where the firm has another office with the same comp) for tax purposes? Still working with the same team in the same office in state one, and okay to fly back once a week even if the “two days in office” become a thing…

Anyone here into buying distressed commercial debt from banks and collecting on it or selling the assets?

Who is hiring Human Capital and Learning Development roles right now?

What are your thoughts on joining a startup that pushes for no structure in their company? Supposedly they thrive from what he told me but I’m not convinced. Is this really a thing?

Does anyone else balk a little bit when applying for jobs and the recruiter or job description mentions a lot of blog writing and other content like that?

For folks that went from big law to DOJ or SEC as a junior to mid level attorney, was it difficult to get traction on your applications? How long were you applying before you got bites on your resume?

I’m doing my own marketing for my small business and am having trouble creating call to actions that convert. Where can I learn more about this?

Does anyone feel like they don’t want to go back to normal? On the one hand, absolutely I want to. I miss seeing friends, dressing up, going out, and traveling for work. On the other hand I have saved so much money over the past year, spent a lot more time with family than I would have ever been able to, and actually rested and been able to focus on my wellness (started therapy and treatment for a chronic condition.)

How long did you take off time from COVID?

Can anyone share resources for getting a night nurse and/or nanny in nyc? Trying to understand pricing, availability (part time/full time), etc.

First toilet paper, now it’s flour, yeast and baking products. Why is instant yeast 10x more expensive on amazon?! Is everyone really trying their hand at baking now? What happened to rice and pasta?

Just got my first pet - Teacup/Toy Yorkie! (Wife and I have been wanting a dog and quarantine seemed like the perfect time to get one)

Was looking for Pet Insurance for him. PwC offers a 10% discount through ASPCA. Was wondering what pet insurance everyone else has and if any company is preferred?

I’m thinking of a plan with a $250 deductible with 90% reimbursed with a 10k annual limit of total reimbursements. Thoughts/opinions on this?

Pic of him in the comments :)

Costco is selling washable black fabric masks by 32 degrees (brand) that are far more comfortable to wear than those medical masks. Highly recommend especially if you are not at high risk.

To all those who still refuse to get vaccinated. Do you honestly believe it’s safer and healthier to not get vaccinated? Please, serious answers only.

Hi BAL has submitted my H1B on 04/24 and yet to receive the receipt number. How soon the attorney will update the receipt number?

Does this Friday feel like a Monday to anyone else?

How fast do you think we return to normalcy in 2H?

i think we have finally squeezed out all the happy-go-lucky advertisers from this bowl and digitally transformed it into a consultant and lawyer cesspool... mission accomplished

Saw there is a promoted live session on how to handle performance reviews today (1/6) but when I click on it it just takes me to this bowl. Anyone know how to register?

F this, I need some normalcy back in my life.

I'm going to wear a suit while I'm WFH.

Last week I had to explain to my child what “politics” (as in office politics) is. My child is going to a new high school and wants to play volleyball. There was a 3 day open “tryout” for incoming freshman for 2 teams. After the first day, she noticed that
1) there were obvious favorites (coaches are not even hiding that fact);
2) some can’t even play and got on the team,
3) some that can obviously play but did not get on the team;
4) decision were obviously made before the first day was over.

I’m not a sports guy, so I don’t care that sports are back.
If you do watch sports, how is it? Does it bring back any sense of normalcy?

Let’s talk office set ups. I am looking at a Uplift standing desk as my big splurge because I have back issues, and the room I work in has horrible lighting so I’m considering some sort of selfie light ring type thing that I can clip to my monitor. Anyone have feedback on either the desk or a light they like, or any other ergo friendly home office hacks you’ve found helpful?

Guys - how do y’all split bills during dinner with friends?
SO and I went with a group of friends and folks wanted to split by 10. I don’t mind a one time paying more situation but this has been happening a lot.

Last day of my two week notice at my firm and starting in-house on Monday. Don’t know what to do with myself...is 1pm too early to start drinking wine?

Good morning! I work in Medicare sales and I’m just getting tired of sales because I have to change these elderly people on their insurance very frequently, and it’s frustrating most of the time. I eventually want to be a Christian counselor and I just stared school but that’ll take awhile to get where I want to be. I just want to be happy right now without taking a major pay cut leaving sales. I’m making 80k now, I don’t need to keep making that but a decent amount while still helping people. 🙏
