Company. It’s a pedigree. There’s no standardization of titles in this industry.

Company times infinity.

Also try not to judge yourself by what titles your peers are getting. Your former classmates and colleagues may score quick ACD titles from mediocre shops, but they won’t likely be able to keep those inflated titles at good shops.

Absolutely the companies over titles (especially non mgmt titles), but really its just the stuff you've done and who's heard of it/likes it. The title is the least important thing, it just gives a sense of how old you are and how much you make.

Don’t forget to include the brands you worked on too

Companies... The work never lasts

Company and Portfolio until you have leadership positions. Then it becomes about street cred

this is great advice thank you everyone❤️

Looking for respectful ways to manage helping people in need of a job or seeking mentorship. I get 3-4 requests a week from mutual contacts asking if I can connect with a former colleague (always broad). Typically the ask is a 30-45 min call. I’ve been laid off, I know how hard a time it is, but equally am working long hours, parenting and want to reserve time for those I know. How do others manage these extra calls into their weeks?
