Worked on a really detailed analysis for a senior person, not my boss, not my team, not my org., spent a week putting together a 10/10 deck - not even a thank you.

Tell them you appreciate gratitude

Lesson learned!

Welcome to industry

Yea i think so. Consultants are people pleasers. Clients aren’t. They’re more focused on their WLB and getting out early to pick their kids up from school than thanking you for things.

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you

I just spoke with a software architect that went back to school to learn software engineering after law school because it was more lucrative and had less hours. He’s worked his way up and has the skills and authority to work 6:30am-10am and gets to work remotely. We discussed that results/outputs is better than billable time like in law and public accounting. Yet, his parents and others would view him as “lazy” but he does his job and makes a fantastic living. Time>Money and Results>Hours
