Just got a Copywriter position offer for $65K (currently making $55K as a junior). Low or just about right?

i’d say it’s a little low but depends on location. i know copywriters at bbdo making 70k, but i think that’s on the low side.

but for 2 years experience i think that sounds about right

I think for two years you’re pretty close to on the money. Keep pushing every year make something good and use it to get better compensation

Depends on your resume, I think. Are you coming from a top shop/have you worked on big brands? Or is this opportunity a significant improvement in terms of prestige and accounts?

I just jumped from a Junior position that gave me 50k, now I’m a Visual Designer, 23 going on 24, making 65k, I think we’re good at 65k for now

Normal.

They’re offering you almost exactly 10% which sounds like a standard opening bid to me. I’d say counter wit $75k and get 70
