    Who’s the absolute worst recruiter on LinkedIn? I’ll go first: Aimee-louise flynn. At this point I’m reasonably certain she’s not a real person.

    When trying to get a foot in the door of a new agency, who do you cold email first? CD? ECD? Head of Talent? I’m looking for a new job, and it’s harder than ever to get a reply. Sadly, most agencies ...
