So I’ve had two interviews at a start up, one over video chat and the other was two hours long in-person with the CEO and the co-founder, but during the process I was laid off from my job (continued)

I applied for few SA roles at AWS after getting the SAA certificate and some badges like the “WAF” and “Advanced Migration”. I also optimized my resume recently trying to match what AWS would look for, but I did not get any 1st call or screening interview!
I also applied to some of the roles using friend’s referral. I have more than 15 years in IT infrastructure mainly in Storage systems (EMC, Hitachi) What could be the problem? Thanks.

Could people share some “I got laid off and it turned out to be great” stories? Granted I’m sure none of those stories involve being laid off in a global pandemic like I just was.

I have been in conversations with a couple companies about new positions that they’re considering me for. I have built relationships with and respect them highly, but am unsure of my future plans - am strongly considering grad school in the fall. Is there a way for me to let them know gracefully and ask if they’re still open to working together? I feel pretty sure about grad school but nothing is set in stone and I want to be transparent without shooting myself in the foot. Thanks!

Process at tiny agencies

Anyone have experience working at a creative shop with no account team? My agency does design, brand and websites so it’s just designers, two devs & a writer (me). I come from a slightly larger, more conventional agency so the lack of structure here confounds me.

For example: we don’t do creative briefs at all. Been here for 1.5 years and things are coming to a head for me. Frustrated with our unclear processes, and I’m not making good work. Do I just need to reframe?

Any recommendation on how to approach creative recruiters on LinkedIn? Never had to do it before so thanks for all suggestions.

Hello CDs, Let’s say a junior team brings in work. Instead of giving feedback right away, you have to sit and think on it. Does it mean they dropped the ball? We had our first review as new hires and we are feeing like 😬😬. Especially me, since it was writing heavy project.

My partner and I are in the process of being in a bidding war between two agencies right now. Our book is good but not like THAT good. They’re throwing out numbers I used to only dream of and not sure I can live up to the pressure. Any advice? I know first world problem…

I was always taught to go after jobs with CDs/ECDs/CCOs I want to learn from/work with rather than chase down titles. That said, who are the CDs/ECDs/CCOs you’d slap a nun to work with? And which shop are they currently at?

How can I be better at helping my CW partner with scripts and to just be more helpful to my partner?

Lately I’ve been feeling like I don’t have good taste on what makes a good spot and what doesn’t, and I’m not feeling as helpful as I’d like to be. I get left out on emails about script feedback and I don’t know if I’m taking it personally, but I just want to do better and feel like I’m achieving as a team. (Cont.)
