Took a job a few months ago and I told them during my interview that things like concepting and full campaigns were a priority. I’ve done none of that. Designing emails & print. What do I do? (Ctd)

Do what they ask and hold onto your job for the time being. You are lucky right now. All of us that are working are very fortunate.

When all of this subsides then reprioritize to advance your career. For now stay employed, safe, and healthy.

With Corona is that even an issue?

I was completely mislead. (I know, happens all the time) I feel like looking for a job right now seems so hard. How I do I make adjustments where I currently am? (I’m actively working on my book to get out asap when/if things are normal-ish again)

I’m sure the agency wants that work also and when they get it you’ll do that work. Until then youll have to do whatever is needed. Think about creating a campaign the agency can go and pitch.

Sounds like you got a junior designer role, not an art director. I feel like some places mask roles with the title “art director” to make it seem more attractive

Do you have advice on how to interview better with Amazon?

My résumé and portfolio are great, and I’ve been asked to interview with Amazon for 4 different teams now. However, it seems like I’m not making it past the first 1:1 interview. 3 out of 4 have resulted in not the right fit for reasons unknown; they don’t provide any feedback either. I have been invited for a new interview today with another team, and I am hoping 4th time is the charm. Any tips on how to do better next time?

Currently scheduling “on sites” for a S&O role in CA. My referrer said they can hire as L5 or L6. Would like to land in the L6 bucket as I’ve heard 5 --> 6 is one of the more challenging promotions.

I’m looking for info on what the real difference is in responsibilities (manager vs IC, cross functional vs focused, etc) so I can focus on checking the L6 boxes during my interviews.

I’m also curious about whether this is something that I should just discuss with my recruiter directly?
