What do you all do for your mental health while in between work/not getting interviews & offers? I feel like I’m hitting rock bottom here, and my mind NEVER stops going. I think the holidays made it worse because I knew no one was actively working on hiring. I’ve experienced some mental health issues before, but nothing close to this. I’m young in my career if that helps with any insight or just to hear some positive experiences. Thanks for reading my rant

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
