Enlightened Conversations
My husband and I drop our 17 month old son off to his own Sunday school so we can attend church. He has a new nursery teacher who reminds me a great deal of the alcoholic organ playing psychic on the movie Poltergeist. All she is missing is the hidden flask and the sound of [...]

Why Don’t You Love Me Anymore?
We’ve all been in one of those volatile relationships at some point in our lives. Whether it was with a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife… you fell completely head over heels for them almost instantaneously. Let’s say it was a boyfriend. He was cute. He was fun. He dressed well. He said and did all [...]

It’s A Small World After All
We often caution candidates that Advertising is a small world. There is so much movement within this industry (thankfully) that it’s likely that the Account Director you flipped off in the elevator may be sitting across from you in an interview a couple years later. Oops.
Well, dear Hiring Manager, the same is true for you. [...]

Movin’ On
One of the things I love about recruiting for the [tag]advertising[/tag] world is that people who live and work in this world are open to change. It’s just the nature of the beast. It’s a dynamic industry and the people who thrive are those who see the benefit of moving to new agencies and exploring [...]

Time to Act!
Anyone who knows me can tell you that I absolutely love to shop. I’m a female. It kind of comes with the territory. I nearly foam at the mouth at the very thought of shopping for anything… shoes, jewelry, electronics, lottery tickets, fresh produce—you name it. Feel bad for my future husband? Me too. The [...]

Living in Shades of Gray
I’m one of those people who pack two weeks ahead of time. The list is made two weeks before that with a different list compiled in the bedroom, downstairs and work since that is when the “don’t dare forget that” comes to mind. A final list is compiled from the three miscellaneous lists before the [...]

No Place To Hide
I think some of us could use a reminder that we are all really OUT THERE in terms of our [tag]virtual footprint[/tag]. Each week, I post blogs on this site. I send emails to candidates and represent this company in many ways. Anyone who wanted to poke around a bit could find out any number [...]

The Only Thing George was Really Curious About was Why They Picked YOU to Record the Soundtrack Jack!
I have a favorite expression and I wanted to share it with you…you good people that I work with on a daily basis. It’s simple and it just rolls off the tongue like Shakespeare or Wordsworth. The expression: I HATE JACK JOHNSON!Yes, I hate Jack Johnson. When I hear his voice, the hairs on the [...]

Talk to Me
Kids go through phases. Thanks God they are “phases” since that word implies there will be an end eventually. We are currently in Round Two of my six year old son in Melt Down Phase. He’s a little guy but he has some big feelings and when he feels they are stepped on, we hear [...]

Pedigree Price Tags
In [tag]today’s economy[/tag] dealerships are practically giving cars away, but don’t go expecting to drive away in an Escalade for the price of a Pathfinder. It just won’t happen! If a pedigree [tag]ad professional[/tag] is what your heart desires, that’s exactly what we will send you but be prepared to fork up the cash because [...]
