I have a long background in management and have been very successful in climbing the ladder but I would love to start career coaching on the side. Any feedback is helpful!

Hi All,
I am feeling lost in job. So I’ve applied for Accounts payable they offered 40k. I said why not to gain some experience. I didn’t even bother negotiating which I regret.
Fast forward I noticed that I was eventually handed everyone’s workload (AR & imports & duty and check coworker work + AP) Spoke to them about pay increase based on workload. So they raised it to 55k.. but I still feel underpaid based on the amt of work I do. I don’t know what my title or what to put on resume..

Got FA FP&A role with strategy exposure @ 2YOE in consulting, decent salary.

Is this a good move? What exits/careers exist for Financial Analysts?

New wage code!

Has your CTC been revised according to new wage code ? ie. Min 50% basic ?
Neither my current employer nor any offers that have been extended to me have been in accordance with this. Will our CTC be revised this FY ?

Pitch videos. It has now become standard to be handed a vo script with no thought as to what’s on screen. When did the editor's job become thinking up the images as well?

Which agencies have the best in-house departments?

Looking for advice on a new monitor for my at home work setup. I’ve got a new M1 Mac MacBook Pro coming soon, and I am replacing my 2015 iMac, so I am in need of a monitor, and I have never purchased a monitor in my life. Always had iMacs.
I’m definitely interested in ultrawide too.

Hi Freelance Video Editors in New York. How do you find your work? Is it usually through producers? I need to crack the code! Also, what is the going rate for a senior editor with motion skills?

Beginner video editing advice wanted - I’m working on a personal side gig project. As part of that, I’m recording short interviews with people currently using a camera and/or iPhone .. (cont)

I work at a post-house and made a spec spot using a bunch of footage that was provided to us by a client (direct to brand relationship, not via an agency). Clients haven’t seen....

Hi Editors!
What did your transition from AE to editor look like?

5 months ago I joined an advertising post house as a full-time AE. Through the support of a lead editor at the company I found my way into making cuts for the company’s most prestigious client. At this point, I’ve been the sole editor of one global campaign and a co-editor of another, in addition to cutting many social media videos. It’s only 5 months but I can’t help feel that my title doesn’t reflect the work I actually do.

Does anyone include a bit on invoices like "Accounts not paid within terms are subject to a .75% monthly (9% annual) finance charge" or something like that?

Tangentially, has anyone had an invoice with 30-day terms kicked back for revisions because the client's terms are longer, or do they just ignore what you've stipulated?

Roll call. How much experience? Do you staff in a boutique? An agency? Freelance? If freelance, do you usually work in agency studios, prodcos...? Do you bring on a post producer to help on big jobs?

Anybody had a good experience working as an editor repped by a commercial editorial/post shop?

I’m 30yo w/ 6yrs copywriting experience. I realized I find my joy in edit, and it’s what i want to do. I’m self taught, no reel. Am i crazy? What do i do to get in the biz? What should i expect?

I’m so glad this bowl finally exists.
