🎃 What remote teambuilding/social committee events has your office done since COVID?

Looking for ideas to replace the drinks or office goodies we normally give out (Halloween, Christmas, July 4, Valentines etc., plus random “fun stuff”) – we’ve done a few virtual happy hours but obviously everyone has had more than enough of Zoom at this stage! We’re all sticking within our immediate teams for informal catch ups - any ideas that involve the whole agency?

I have worked in KPMG,EY for Assurance, Audit

YOE: 4.1

Please refer/suggest me any companies.( Kochi or WORK FROM HOME)

Thanks in advance

Does anyone know any companies that offer project coordinator positions in LA, California (state) or remote for undergrads or people without a bachelor’s degree? I’ve been trying to apply to one but they all require a bachelor’s degree and I’m currently an undergrad.

What’s the dress code for zoom interviews? So far, I’ve definitely been dressed more formally than my interviewers but could be because they were tech companies

Hello! I have been a consultant for a little over 2.5 years now. I am looking for a 100% remote role at a tech company! Can anyone help me with referrals / let me know if their company is hiring?

It’s so nice that every agency laying off people, have those left standing (and other agencies) trying to hustle jobs for their unemployed friends, but there are also a ton of people who were unemployed prior to Covid...so no severance, job hunting lot longer, and not earning income for longer time...hurting even MORE due to quarantine.

Hi,
I have 3+ years of experience in c++ developer . Please let me know if there are openings available, looking for Pune location and remote.

⚠️Toxicity Alert ⚠️

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.

Manager said overtime was mandatory for COVID and I'd lose my job if I didn't do it. Was this a universal policy or should I look for a new job?

How is anyone surprised that people like Caputo are highly politicized pieces of the COVID response

Did anyone see their salary or bonus increase due to COVID? If so, how? Did you change jobs?

Does anyone need a hr coordinator, or entry level talent acquisitions coordinator that is 100 remote? Remote jobs are extremely competitive and when I find job posts on LinkedIn there are already over 100 applicants.

I have about a year of recruiting in the staffing industry and 6 months as an hr assistant for a corporate/manufacturing company. MA in Hr and will be testing for phr in July. Thank you

Is cognizant still in work from home ?

I was just informed after the third round of interviews they’d like at least 5 references, two must be supervisors. My last job was a temporary remote job where I didn’t really interact with my supervisor and the jobs before that were at my family’s business (I do not speak to any of them for serious personal reasons.) Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕

Hi everyone! I have been in my current role as an EA at a financial institution for about a year and a half now. I would love to find a 100% remote role as a mid level EA at a company with an awesome work culture. I think I’m ready to be challenged again, I find myself bored in my current role… I’m open to any industry but would love to get into tech. If anyone knows of any openings I would really appreciate it! I’m located on the East coast currently. TIA

Align to non-M&A offering but do a lot of work in the space (DD, integrations). B4 recruiter reached out and wants me to provide resume@for review with hiring partner. Does it work if I provide a bio with summary of M&A projects (client names removed) instead of a traditional resume? Also plan to list education and previous roles.

I'm having some trouble finding a furnished room to rent in downtown for about four months, any suggestions or tips?

Just completed my last shift in the ICU. I'm glad to be shifting back to the Maternatity ward. It was exhausting, and emotionally draining working with such sick patients. I know the work we did made a big difference, but I'm glad to go back to my favorite role!

I have an offer and want to negotiate

I am thinking to negotiate to

When is it appropriate to follow up after an interview for a lateral position? Had a screener call 2 weeks ago and then an interview with the partner + senior associate last Thursday where it was mentioned that they would “likely” want me to meet more people. I’m getting anxious but don’t want to bug them!

Anyone from a major holding company (wpp, omd…etc) who made the move to consulting care to answer some questions I have ? TIA!

I’m in ERP consulting at the moment, focused on manufacturing & supply chain. If I want to eventually transition into more of a tech strategy role, would a CSCP be worth having in my belt?

Layoffs at Omnicom shops today?

Any other second city improv students/grads here? Wondering if you found it valuable to your career. ( I’m talking base classes, not “failed to make snl I so went into advertising “ ☺️)

Been thrust into being a hyper-consumer recently. Holy shit, every "disruptive" store is the same (Casper, joybird, etc etc). This is a boring age of design and iconography.

What’s the inflection point in advertising where you begin to believe your own bullshit?

Who has more earning potential: Creatives or Producers? Talking about two aspects: mid-career salary and lifetime earning potential? I feel like producers peak earlier but creatives have higher max?

Best time sheet system you’ve ever tried in a job?

What's your policy on 'cold-call' messages from hopefuls asking for tips, advice, help? 😇 or 😈

Is anyone expecting agency layoffs at the moment?

How do you handle remote teams being in different time zones? Right now we have a ton of team leaders on the west coast with the core team on the east coast and because of that urgent requests keep coming down after hours with the expectation to address it immediately. So at this point we’re working from 8am until like 11pm and nobody knows what to do to push back on it

If you don’t want your writer to kick you in the throat, refrain from saying things like, “Oh there aren’t any changes to creative...just COPY."

Surprise and delight. I can’t help but not feel the sexual undertones when I read or say it.

Hi friends of fishbowl! A year ago I told myself no more agencies. Then I got a job at another agency and I’m basically hating my life more than ever right now. This place is not good for me mentally and I’ve only been here for 90 days. I should’ve listened to my gut but here we are. So my question is what job titles should I be targeting as a senior project manager if I want to go to to client side?

So I'm in a weird space at the moment. I've been interviewing with a lot of agencies in the past couple of months, and I keep getting the same response of "I need more agency experience." How am I supposed to get that experience if one of the things holding me back is not having enough agency experience?

Any guidance about taking a job at a social agency? Is it as bad as everyone says it is?

Are the ideas that hit you right away ever better than the ideas that come through hours of banging your head against the wall with your partner?

So how much money did Jim Carey get for his Super Bowl spot? Guesses?

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 .
