Who else is tired of people who post on here with vague AF titles that don’t give any indication of job role or department?

Senior Manager, Senior Vice President, Vice President, Manager, I’m looking at you. These are levels of seniority, not job titles.

And they always seem to be the most opinionated.

Correct, FH is a PR agency. We likely have some of them here in YOUR bowl, too. Sorry.

Take it up with the app - my profile defaulted to just the first two words of my title (senior manager) and when I tried to change it it said it was pending and has never been approved.

Or, like, direct your energy to something that matters even at all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Shouldn't blindly accept an opinion based on title anyways. Just assume everyone's an idiot. It's safer.

If you were to ask the boring consultants what a VP does, I bet they'd be able to get in the ballpark. I doubt they could describe creative director. They'd probably think you direct something, creatively.

Point is ... clarity is relative.

McKinsey & Company How likely is McKinsey to rescind an offer if there's a recession/downturn before my start date? Received an Associate offer with a start date early in the Fall. But I'm worried about the offer being rescinded due to the ongoing McK scandals/issues and a potential recession in the making (which may prompt them to freeze hiring and/or renege offers).

Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn? A bit worried

Hello! I see a ton of questions in here about interviewing and getting hired as a PM. I also know that it’s really hard as a manager to hire a great team.

Whether you are someone who’s interviewing or someone who’s hiring right now, ask me anything!
