Who here has heard of the term Job Search Council? The idea comes from the book "Never Search Alone: The Job Seeker’s Playbook".

I am looking to start a new council (group of people that help each other during the job search). I think it is a good idea for like minded individuals to help each other find more satisfaction in the job market.

I haven't heard of that term or that book but it definitely sounds interesting. I am going to have to check that book out because it sounds really good.

Hi all, I’d love to hear from PR/Comms folks about the process of transitioning from agency to an in-house role. What kind of chance does a PR pro with ~7 years of solid experience across CPG and hospitality brands, including a mix of global agency work and smaller boutique firms, have at going in house? Do you typically need more experience before going in house? Would be great to hear about various experiences from those that have made the transition. Thanks!

So I have been made an offer by a company I like but it’s pretty similar to my current package (I also like where I am). The recruiter is pretty intense and is pitting me against another candidate but says I’m the number one choice and is asking me for a number to say yes “but not too high or the team will look at the other candidate”
I’m close to send them to get stuffed. I’m also awaiting a promo and interview feedback from Google. Any advice?
