It was a few years ago but after interviewing I got “the position went in a different direction."

I honestly think a lot of agencies recruit constantly for no (real) reason.

Maybe it helps them look viral. Maybe it’s just (misplaced) optimism so they’ll be ready when they win a pitch. Maybe it’s just so the recruiters can justify their jobs.

With Ogilvy, I bet it’s the second.

smart

It’s bc they won Walgreens and are staffing up. so. you’re kinda right. 😂

1st year. I have a decent amount of client email/phone interaction. One partner frequently asks me to communicate with clients, and the partner tells me to ask if I have any questions before emailing the client.

I almost always respond to the partner with my thoughts and ask partner whether P agrees with my thoughts, prior to emailing client. At what point should I be skipping that step and just email client? I’m worried about making a mistake, but most of the time P agrees with my “draft”

I would like to hit fire between 40-50. Currently 27, 185k total comp (125 for me and 60 for partner). Like my job don’t hate it don’t love it. Does an MBA make sense? I’m guessing it could take me to 170ish with that schools I’m looking at but wondering if the 40-50 retirement range makes an mba not make sense since I’d only have 10-20 years to save vs 12-22.

Would have to finance the whole thing myself. Current net worth is 140k. Thoughts?
