Hi experienced sharks. I joined Deloitte as a campus hire in Jan 2021, I am a 2020 graduate. I come from a tier3 institution. In this virtual setup, peer to peer learning is missing. I have completed 1 year of experience in IT, still I feel doubtful of my skills. I don't have much network to discuss this with. I had a long benchtime last yr, though I am staffed onto a project now.. team doesn't talk much. please share your inputs for fast upskilling / points that can help me in my career. TIA.🙏

How is the culture at EY, specifically the Real Estate Tax in the NYC office?
Also, is there a good variety of clients or is there primarily one large client that everyone ends up working on?

Pls advise how to deal with this? My team got moved to a Sr.Leader whom I've been supporting for the last 9 months as a temp resource. The project I've been assisting him becomes THE priority for the team now. Since I have good relationship & knowledge of the product, I've been a go-to person for this Sr. Leader. However, the Sr. Manager that leads the group& reports to this leader, seems to be micro-managing me- delegating my tasks which I am capable of & trying to cut me off of my own meetings

What’s the best way to show my manager positive feedback I received from client? Is forwarding the email best? Any tips appreciated

However, I also love my firm. I love getting to work on different things and I feel so supported by my team.

New to the industry, somewhat fresh out of school.

Currently interviewing for assistant acc exec at Saatchi (work with Toyota) and acc manager Media.Monks (not sure what accounts).

What is the one question or piece of information that is a must on your media briefs (outside of the basic obvious ones)?

Have any of you ever worked on something that required doing qual interviews with law enforcement? If so how did you go about recruiting them? None of my go-to market research agencies seem to be able to

Examples of founders/CEOs that were "bigger than their brand"? It could be to illustrate the positive or negative effects - doesn't matter. Looking for some less obvious examples than Elon and Tesla, Jobs and Apple. Thank you!

Are there any strategy/planning L&D traditions you’ve particularly enjoyed at your agencies? Things that have enriched and inspired your work as a team — culture brainstorms, monthly lunch and learns, etc.

Looking for any inspiration 🙂

Strategy directors - how long have you been in the role and how long do you plan on staying at that level for? Just want a gut check after 2-3 years to see if I should be aiming for GSD soon or take my time to write more of my own strategies as a mostly individual contributor.

Sometimes I crack myself up writing briefs. Like girl why you so serious. Like it’s a phone not a peace treaty. It’s ketchup not American nostalgia. I get that we’re supposed to make meaning out of commodities and differentiate itself but man it’s just noise. The products and the brands don’t catch up with the insights. It is love we want; it is Calvin Klein Eternity we buy. How do y’all deal?
