When you read a mid‑level account or strategy resume, what are the top 2–3 things that actually make you stop and think, “Okay, I want to talk to this person”? I feel like I’m listing tasks, but I’m not sure what results or metrics matter most in this market.

Clear impact (revenue, margin, retention, brand lift, client growth). Ownership (you led X, not just “supported”).Evidence of partnering across teams or markets to solve real problems.

The agencies you’ve worked at or accounts you’ve worked on often carry more weight than anything else on your resume. Especially in a highly competitive job market. The things the person above this shared are also important, so I don’t want to discredit that. However, if they’re hiring for a food brand, for instance, and you have no experience in that category, that’s often why people get passed over.

I have been approached with an opportunity at JP Morgan Chase for their private client advisor role. The book is about 30M all in. I am currently an experienced hybrid asset manager wholesaler and have experience in advising as well. Curious about the opportunity with JPM and if it’s worth it. I currently make about 160k and if JPM would give me a high draw for the first 3 years to build, and if it’s feasible to sustain that 160+ there.

I got an offer at Meta as a 3-mo contingent CSM that pays 2x what I make now.

Two pros: 1) Making the jump from a non-tech agency role to FAANG can be tough, so this is a great oppo in that aspect.
2) I'm living in SF on a non-tech salary, so the pay increase would be incredible.

It’s possible I could move into a similar role @ Meta once this expires, but to be safe, I'd need to start the job hunt again asap.

Thoughts on the pivot & how valuable a short-stint at Meta is for future job hunt?
