Does anyone have a POC at TikTok regarding gaining access to their self-serve paid Ads platform? Anyone having trouble gaining access to it?

Are there cooldown periods for non tech roles?
Like if you want to apply to another non tech role in a different team (after getting dinged in the on sites), do you have to wait?

Curious what a big law lateral (4th year) signing bonus may be? If I get an offer, this will be my first big law job, so I have nothing to compare it to.

Should whoever came up with the hashtag BabyNut be fired?

What are the best resources for learning about the types of stories that each of the top MBA schools’ admissions committees most like to see?

What’s the biggest marketing blunder you’ve seen a company commit?

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

Hello recruiters, happy Monday!

I want to know why recruiters ask me in an interview if I am looking at other opportunities, or if I am interviewing at other companies. If I say yes they will ask at what stage I am.

I just want to know the reason behind it and if there is a right answer to this question!

Which are best companies to work as Mulesoft developer ?

Feel like I’m stuck. I’m a senior manager (CPA) in international tax but considering a do-over to be more desirable to the industry. If you had to start over (with industry as your end goal) what focus area would you choose?

Would you take a pay cut to move from an on-site to a fully remote position? If so what % of a cut and where would you move if anywhere?

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.

How do you start your concepting process?

Art Directors. How protective are you of your references and resources? I have a folder with lot’s of textures, mockups that I’ve spent time building. I even paid for some of those assets. So I always get a lot of compliments on my comps and decks. Sometimes someone ask for my files and I really don’t want to since I put so much effort on that. But I also feel bad being gatekeeper of things.

I have to stop imagining how great it will be to sell my script until it actually sells.

I’m the only Dad on my team. Last night we had to work till 8. Not because we were swamped. But because the entire team just felt like goofing off for two hours instead of getting the work done....

My ECD keeps changing our work before it goes to client and it's cost us making good work. Our books are suffering because he can't get his hands off the tools. Our books are only full of spec now.

Any other designers out there just don’t really have an interest in the “design world”? Meaning if someone asks if they know a big designer out there or a book, you have no clue or have no interest?

That International Women’s Day logo isn’t deserving of the day & the women it celebrates. Can one of the talented women here please give it the love it deserves and re-design it? I would but...🙋‍♂️

Newly minted Creative directors: What's the going salary these days in a major US market? SF, NYC, Boston, Chicago, LA.

I’m getting sick of getting a brief and asked to create a cool new campaign with amazing designs in less than a day. My best work isn’t turned around in less than 24 hours. And for background, I have pushed back literally every time. Nothing seems to be getting better.

Getting a tour of an agency tomorrow.
I've done my due diligence and researched their clients, awards, culture, etc to ask question.

Any other tips or questions to ask?

Anyone has experience working at 140, Verizon’s in-house agency?

I can't seem to get out of the trap of being a presentation designer. I hate the work, but can't seem to jump to anything else, my book has range. I want to go more into branding how do I do that?

Any Deutsch LA CDs out there who wouldn't mind perusing my portfolio? I hear you have some cw openings and I'd absolutely love to work with you and for Karen Costello. DM if so and thank you!

Benefits of being a creative in house? Better hours? Is the pay the same?

Go-to outfit for client meetings?

Has anyone burned some bridges yet? Just curious 😏

Be honest. Why do you keep coming back to this app?

My book is just spec and side projects. I’m trying to get a new junior-to-mid role because I’ve gotten nothing good produced where I’m at, and I have zero faith this will change if I stick around.

I’m asked for work samples from recruiters and CDs even though I make clear that what I’ve done doesn’t reflect who I am as a creative. Think CRM/DM/B2B stuff. They insist on it, and I never hear back afterwards.

Not sure what to do. Almost feel like I’d be better off erasing my agency experience.
