I know times are tough for everyone right now, and it's no different for me. I'm here humbly asking for any help with finding a new position. I'm currently working part time in retail and it isn't enough to make ends meet. I took this position as a stepping stone or a placeholder until I could get back into the marketing and advertising world, but it's been over a year now and it's getting more and more difficult to get noticed, despite my years of experience. My dream position is a Copywriter at an agency, though I'm very much not picky at this point. Job titles that align with my experience are: -Copywriter -Social Media Coordinator/Manager/Assistant -Community Manager -Marketing Coordinator/Assistant -Administrative Assistant/Office Coordinator/Receptionist (I have 5 years of Front Desk experience, though I need to update my resume to show this) You can help me by: Referring me for any open positions you may see at your company! Sending me any open positions you see that align with my experience Liking, sharing, or commenting on this post Offering to look over my resume, too! Again, I know we're all in this together. I know times are tough for a lot of us right now. If I can help you in your search, too, please let met know. We'll all get through this together 💜 #jobsearch #jobseeker #recruiter #advertisingjobs #copywriterjobs #marketingjobs #creativejobs #doesLIPremiumevendoanything #dopeopleevenlookathashtagsanymore #help

Why do 'marketing' and 'admin' seem to go hand-in-hand so often on job roles? Just saw a role advertised as 'part-time marketing/admin assistant', and can't quite believe in 2024 that is still a thing. Two different skill sets, two different role functions and surely, therefore, two completely different jobs? Any company combining these two job functions into one clearly can't be respecting either their marketing or admin staff. What do my fellow marketers think? Is there a place for these dual-function roles still? #Marketing #Admin

Here's a quick exercise: after writing the job description for the marcom role, take a moment to read it from a candidate's perspective. Ask yourself, "Would you want to do this job? Does it seem reasonable?" If the answer is no to both, consider potential applicants' reactions. Avoid putting people on the fast track to burnout.

Specialist ≠ Entry-level I was recently asked on my newsletter: "Do you find issues where having specialists serving clients keeps quality limited? Being immersed on strategy is helpful, but I don't want to hire entry-level generalists forever" As you scale up your services and hire specialist roles  it's natural in the beginning to hire entry-level folks to fill roles like copy editing, social media coordinating, video editing, etc.  But does that mean you'll be on the hamster wheel of hiring entry-level generalists forever?  No.  Specialist ≠ Entry-level I focus on getting high-level specialists whenever I can.  Some specialists MAY have entry-level people supporting them but I focus on quality and talent.  That way, it's less stressful for me (or managers/drivers) to manage them  and it fits my personality:  • I want quality work • I am very anti micro managey  • I have high expectations for my team

Networking means sharing jobs with others. You may not be qualified for a job or aren't looking, but you know others who are. In that vain, I'm sharing these jobs where I have a direct contact. Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ is seeking an Onsite Copywriter and Digital associate, and a Hybrid Content and Communications Manager - Sue McLean is seeking someone with basic IT skills and has a foundation in some area of Retail - or better yet, Fashion/Apparel. (i.e. store systems, merchandising, inventory, supply chain) for a perm, hybrid role in NYC for one of the largest retail apparel companies in the world looking to expand their headquarters team in NYC. In a given week I probably get 5-10 job leads from others (not the mass email ones) but from recruiting friends like Janelle Razzino and Marty Latman, CPA, CFO, Consultant, Career Coach, Mentor who fill their job through networking with others. Is the job market rough? Absolutely! That doesn't mean there aren't jobs out there but it's knowing who to connect with and why? Even though I'm not looking anymore I maintain relationships with recruiters (in house and executive ones).
