Jobs in Marketing

Greetings to my fellow unemployed marketing pros. How long have you been on the job hunt? I was laid off in March, and just had to move back in with my parents. It's tough out there.

Is it more impressive to employers if I craft my own resume instead of using AI to do it?

I got laid off in probation period. I have been there for 5 months and was loving it. I know it's legal and there is no much I can do about it, it just feels a little bit to abroupt that they fire me ...

This might be all in my head, but I felt a little uncomfortable during a digital interview yesterday. I logged on for a Zoom meeting and they had let me know that they expected my camera to be on ahea...

Do you think it's normal for a company to only give you two sick days for a full year? That's the sick leave policy at my new company. Heck, covid is an annual illness now, and the flu takes at least ...

I know there is a trend with people who try to cover up fibs on their resumes by claiming they can't talk about their past work because they signed NDAs. Thus, most employers now think anyone who uses...

Dear companies, can you give us one reason, just one, that you need us to create profiles with login information just to send you our resumes? Applying to a job shouldn't have this many steps.

I’m a marketing & comms professional with over 10 years of experience and zero traction in 13 months after a layoff. Any referrals I’ve gotten either screw me over or go absolutely nowhere. Currently ...
