Like in any downturn, there will always be some agencies hiring, the openings just get more competitive.

I’d look at what companies are doing well in these conditions (P&G, Unilever, Amazon, Kroger, DoorDash, Seamless/Grubhub etc...) and find agencies that are heavy on those accounts. They’ll be the ones hiring as things stabilize.

Obviously Grey and Saatchi have most of P&G, Unilever is spread out, Kroger is at DDB, The Martin Agency has DoorDash, Seamless is still at BBH I think. Follow the money, be persistent and you’ll be okay!

The interest isn’t actually what drives the business during a downturn. Their new card acquisitions go through the roof because people open new account to take advantage of new account offers. You can open a cash back card and get $500 cash back. For some families, that’s your mortgage payment for a month.

Agencies were struggling in one of the best economies we’ve ever seen. I think mass hiring by fall is pretty optimistic. But it’ll be a great time to freelance directly with clients (ie. start your own agency) or go in-house.

Really hope so.

Hi fishes,
I am currently working as a Data Science Analyst in Amex and would like to make a switch to Fraud detection/Credit risk modelling in future.(not in a hurry but would like to start preparing for the same)
How should I go about preparing for it? Is MBA the only course?
My current tech stack is Python, Pyspark, Hive, SQL, ML, DL(specifically NLP based). I have already done MS in CS from IIT Kgp.
I am confused mainly cause the tech stack requirement is similar to my role in the company.

When you get an activation brief, what’s your process for coming up with a solid idea?

Thanks.
