Email them to keep your papertrail. Make it clear what you need and what happens if they don't deliver.

Bump it at a reasonable but increasing frequency. Include whoever's needed to cover your ass.

And that's that.

“Hey dude wtf”

“As per my last emailllll..”

Just direct the account team/PM to them, and say you need X amount of time after their review. Let others chase for you

at this point I'm done with emails and I go to phone calls and might even show up to their home

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

How are you developing client relationships when in-person networking is out?

I'm used to hanging out with my clients frequently, grabbing coffee, stopping by the office, etc. Zoom/Hangouts meetings just feel really awkward and it's difficult switching from business development which was 90% IRL to nearly all online... Especially when I run a 1-person shop.

How about y'all?

Asking creatives to work on a project with lots of award potential but minimal budget/billable time allocations. So the majority of the work would be done on personal time.
