Looking for a Christmas present for my girlfriend. Would like to stay under $250 (I’m a 1st year staff shes in grad school so don’t have much money). She likes gold — I’m thinking of getting her a necklace, which I believe I can only get gold plated in my price range. Does anyone have any suggestions of good brands to buy? First time looking at jewelry websites and they seem kinda gimmicky and would like one I can trust and get good quality. Thank you!

Hi All,

I had an offer from CGI for 14lpa two months ago. I rejected it as I received an offer from a product based company for 19lpa+5L stocks. Now I am not able to handle the pressure in this Product company and want to go back to CGI. Can I apply to CGI again? Will they take me? Is there any duration to apply again. Please help.

Word to all of you out there, if you trash talk other people within your industry (and clients), they will find out and they soon may be in a position to decide if they want to hire you. Happened to several people I know. When will people learn that egos and talking shit is so outdated. 🙄

Thoughts on Pfizer’s canvas for developing emails and iDetails?

I’ve been having a super hard time concepting lately, especially knowing that the “concept” will mostly serve as a sticker to slap on the cover of a CVA and the top of a website. I feel like every pharma concept I’ve ever seen or created becomes so cheesy once it appears in tactics. Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?
