Where do you take phone interviews while at work? Just wanna a few ideas 💡

Hi fishes,

Why is there a global hiring freezing in hp when it may open ?

Interviewing at McKinsey and wanted to understand the reality of the travel expectations of a solution leader at the manager level. Thanks!

Could anyone help me understand the levels for SEM role in Comcast Engineering Center India?

I attended a couple of rounds of interviews for Software Engineering Manager 1 (as the JD said) on a quick schedule and wonder if I should have asked next level instead.

YoE - 15, Hands-on EM, can code, do project and people management
Tech - AWS and .NET

Also an indicative range of CTC I should ask for will be helpful. Currently I'm underpaid at 20.1L as I worked in the same company for 12 years.

Do any of you follow your career center’s resume template/ guide in terms of formatting or do you use something else?

Has anyone come across market sizing, segmentation etc. research on enterprise software and ISVs? Have an interview coming up and saw that this was one of the mini case questions asked in prior interviews

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews. I called the HR after getting their point of contact mail and I asked if it's possible to switch. They said I'm already tagged to a project and that they'll check from their end if it can be done.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.

How’s the axtria compensation? The HR reached out saying we can’t pay more than 30% in hike but I wouldn’t agree on that. Just wanted to know if they’ll repent after interviews or is it a hard and fast rule?

Why don’t recruiters tell you upfront about the role they contacted you about? I had a message from a recruiter yesterday from a recruiter about a copywriter role she’s working on...

Amazon recruiter reached out and wants to know my general compensation expectations before first interview. Very little info available on role but seeing $150k-$250k total compensation reported. Is this too wide of a range to give them?

Are interview case studies difficult? Is it done live or is it take-home? What should I expect in terms of content/questions, duration, difficulty?

Got an offer for an Interview with Littler Mendelson. Anyone got any pros and cons, and starting salary for a new attorney in the Midwest?

Hello All - looking for links, resources , samples on interview prep/practice for sales , account management, partner management, practice management at FAANG companies like amazon, google, microsoft

I got a call from KPMG HR for the role of Associate consultant in research team, When she asked me about the expected ctc, I think I quoted less than the market standards but since I am underpaid currently so the amount I quoted was 40-45% hike on my fixed. I have experience of 2.9years
Can anybody please suggest if I clear their interviews will they consider increasing CTC from whatever I quoted becase upon searching for ACon roles they pay much higher than what I quoted.
Please Help

No negatives/issues in my f22 feedback. Utilization above target. Way Above average
Recently fired without reason

Quite miffed as I just got a small pay rise and now I think this plus the upcoming not rises in utilities and inflation will pretty much cancel it out.

I’m currently a Grade 11 at Cisco. With the recent pay structure changes my annual comp will be $150k + 12% bonus. I live in a large metro area in the middle of the US. I’m looking to move around the company so that I can make commission but I don’t want to be an account manager. Can anyone tell me if there are Customer Success Managers, etc positions that manage customers post sale and have a similar range base as me with commission plans? I’m just trying to understand income potential.

Is it just me, or is it getting crazier out there?

Hi fellow fishies - loaded question but does anyone know of any agencies (ideally in NYC) that are open to visa sponsorship? I have a good friend and former coworker who is a KICKA$$ account lead and is struggling to find a new role (needle in a haystack for sponsorship... ugh). Current place is beyond toxic. Any info/advice appreciated! Thank you 😊

I hit 500 subscribers today. Pretty stoked. I know others have millions more.

How do you not go absolutely batshit with anxiety while job hunting?

New State Farm commercial- who is covering "Don't forget about me"? I can't find it anywhere.

Does anyone know who the creative recruiter is at Meta? (Chicago)

My browser history is failing me and hope y’all can help! I recently stumbled upon a website where some ad folks had compiled a bunch of idea/conceptual thinking approaches and if you clicked through there were past spots that had utilized that idea / way of thinking. I wanted to share it with a mentee and can’t track it down. It was a simple layout: grid of images w/headline naming the idea … Sound familiar?

So now I have to live with the knowledge that someone named Young Gravy is out there

This may sound odd, but can you run an agency without an ECD/CCO?? (Asking for a friend)

What are your thoughts on leaving a stable but unfulfilling job for another one during these times?

Long shot here, but does anyone have a google sheet / excel document with a list of all potential Advertising Award Show submissions that you would be able to share? Including deadlines for 2021/2022?

Adoptable dogs on beer cans: copy or coincidence?

Motorworks Brewing in Florida did this years ago, and now Uncommon just did the exact same thing for Brewdog beer.

Straight up plagiarism imo. Literally search "adoptable dog on beer can" and the Motorworks stuff comes up, so not googling the idea beforehand is not an excuse.

Anyone have any good job searching strategies/tips? I'm losing motivation

I think I’m finally burnt out on agency life. What’s a logical next step? Freelance? In-house? A new career all together?

Don’t email me (with questions!) on Saturday 😡

Tired of this constant grind and constant layoff situation in NYC. Thinking of making the move to LA. Any thoughts? Yay or nay?

“have fun with this brief” they say before telling you the client is pretty conservative and needs to have safer options.

i know we don’t always work on stuff we’re thrilled about but i’ve never dreaded reviews for a client before until now
