Took a mental health break during the summer, to re-charge my batteries and continue my job-hunt.
I keep seeing so many “ghost”positions, same listings I looked at before my break or 100+ applications.
I’m on day 665 of unemployment and have max 2 months of rent until my Visa maxes out.

Does anyone have any leads? Strategy/Insights,
Social Analyst, Account, Community Management/Moderator.

Thanks in advance!

I don't have any leads or intel. I'm on the creative side more so than strategy but just wanted to say best of luck. It's hard out there right now, so I get it.

Hopefully you can land something in those 2 months.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. (1 John 4).

Is our industry as competitive as some say? I see a lot of people saying this and I work with a bunch of hacks (myself included). It felt like a little while ago agencies were begging to hire new talent, and most couldn’t find new people. Is it really that hard to get a job at an agency? Maybe I’m just out of touch being in this career for so long.

Hey guys, I’m a freelance broadcast producer and I’ve spent most of my career working for larger agencies. I’m doing something for a smaller agency and they want the production company to hide costs in their bid and then have production bill the client the inflated amount directly and pay the hidden costs to the agency. The agency is calling it a “consultation fee” but client just thinks production costs more. Is that common and I just haven’t experienced it before? Or is this a big red flag?
